Opening of Joe Turner's Come and GoneAugust Wilson's Joe Turner’s Come and Gone officially opened May 8 following previews that began April 24 at the Center Theatre Group/Mark Taper Forum at the Los Angeles Music Center.

The daily routine of meals, conversation, gossip, arrivals and departures, and the changes that occur within this fluid grouping of people, is set against a great tide of Americans of African descent, only 50 years out of bondage, who are moving toward the industrial cities of the North in search of economic opportunity, lost family members and new beginnings."
