JOE TURNER’S COME AND GONE is a perfect script choice for both Karamu’s 100th anniversary and Black History month. The script is a classic and the production is one of Karamu’s better offerings. For those who want a good history lesson, to be exposed to the writing of one of America’s greatest playwrights, and see a well performed show, JOE TURNER’S COME AND GONE is a good choice!

It is easy to see why August Wilson counted this
play as his favorite. The use of comedy,
mystery, drama and romance carries the audience along. Although the show is over two hours in
length, time goes by very quickly (as it should be with good
performances). If you are looking for a
good history lesson to coincide with Black History Month or for that matter,
any month this is the show to see.

Set
in 1911, Joe Turner is a massively
ambitious play masquerading at times as a very simple story about a,
African-American boarding house in Pittsburgh and the folks who pass though its
doors. And this production, directed with spot-on specificity by Terrence
Spivey, tells that story with skill.
Andrea Simakis
"Joe Turner's Come and Gone," directed with a sure
hand and a winning coach's eye for team building by Terrence Spivey, is as
skillfully rendered and solid as the oak trim around the doorframes in the 1911
Pittsburgh boardinghouse where the action unfolds.
