"Histories are passed as we keep doing things together . . . through struggle, through joy, through lovemaking, through challenge," Deadwyler explained to The New Yorker.
Danielle Deadwyler, who first grabbed the spotlight for her performance as Emmett Till's mother in the film 'Till,' stars in 'The Piano Lesson,' a play about Black life in Pittsburgh.
Denzel Washington has committed to adapting and producing all ten of Wilson's Century Cycle plays; 'The Piano Lesson' is directed by his son Malcolm, and his other son, John David, co-stars.
Deadwyler plays Berniece, a widow who has kept the family piano after her migration north to Pittsburgh; her brother wants to sell it to buy a plot of land.
