Gem of the Ocean

Gem of the Ocean follows a young man who arrives in 1904 Pittsburgh seeking a fresh start and becomes entangled in a local dispute. Aunt Ester, a 285-year old spiritual matriarch, takes him on a journey to a mythological city which connects him to his ancestors, defines his duty to the town, and introduces him to the love of his life. The first chronological play in August Wilson’s ten-play American Century Cycle, Gem of the Ocean is a powerful and poetic story of redemption, history, and self-determination.
