Golden Globe® winner Taraji P. Henson makes her Broadway debut alongside Cedric the Entertainer, Tony Award® nominee Joshua Boone, and Tony Award winner Ruben Santiago-Hudson, who return to the stage in a luminous revival of August Wilson’s Joe Turner’s Come and Gone, directed by Emmy® and Golden Globe winner Debbie Allen.

Set in Pittsburgh in 1911 during a pivotal era of migration and transformation, Joe Turner’s Come and Gone centers on Seth and Bertha Holly (Cedric and Henson) who run a warm, orderly boardinghouse for those navigating uncertain paths. But when a mysterious man named Herald Loomis (Boone) arrives with his young daughter, the stillness of the house begins to shift. This timeless American classic is a profoundly moving story of personal awakening, collective memory and the quiet power of human connection.
