Summary
Fences is the story of a responsible yet otherwise flawed black garbage collector in pre-Civil Rights America who, in Wilson's hands, rises to the level of an epic hero. It has been produced around the world and is one of the most significant African-American plays of the 20th century. This reference is a comprehensive guide to Wilson's dramatic achievement.
