GEM OF THE OCEAN by August Wilson
THE HUMAN RACE THEATRE COMPANY

Gem of the Ocean is set in 1904, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at 1839 Wylie Avenue in the Hill District; the home of Aunt Ester, a 285-year-old former slave, who is a keeper of tradition and history for her people and a renowned cleanser of souls. The people who pass through her parlor and kitchen include Eli, Aunt Ester's protector; Black Mary, her housekeeper and protegé; Solly Two Kings, a former slave, conductor on the Underground Railroad; Black Mary's brother, Caesar, a constable; Rutherford Selig, a white peddler; and Citizen Barlow, a new arrival from down South who needs Aunt Ester to help him absolve the guilt and shame from a crime he's committed. Citizen Barlow is in search of redemption. Aunt Ester guides him on a soaring, lyrical journey of spiritual awakening to the City of Bones.
