Set in the aftermath of the 2008 recession, Golden follows Morris Golden, a man struggling to save his family’s laundromat while grappling with loss, love, and legacy. When he discovers a broken change machine with mysterious powers, what begins as a simple search for hope becomes a profound journey of transformation.
From award-winning Seattle playwright Andrew Lee Creech, Golden is a gripping and heartfelt world premiere exploring the ripple effects of our choices and the enduring power of human connection. This production is part of Creech’s Legacy Plays Project, a nine-play cycle examining pivotal moments in the lives of Black Americans throughout history.
Directed by nationally acclaimed director Tyrone Phillips and featuring a powerhouse cast, Golden invites audiences into a story that’s intimate, poetic, and deeply moving.
