About the show

Two Black scavengers emerge from the underbrush loaded with their total possessions: the makings of a shack and a battery of pots and pans, but nothing to cook in them. They are the dregs of society, the stepped-upon, the spat-upon. Boesman and Lena made its U.S. premiere off-Broadway at the Circle in the Square Theatre on June 22, 1970. Directed by John Berry, the production starred James Earl Jones and Ruby Dee.
