The Piano Lesson is a 1987 play by American playwright August Wilson. It is the fourth play in Wilson's The Pittsburgh Cycle. Wilson began writing this play by playing with the various answers regarding the possibility of "acquir[ing] a sense of self-worth by denying one's past". The Piano Lesson received the 1990 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. A Romare Bearden painting, The Piano Lesson, inspired Wilson to write a play featuring a strong female character to confront African-American history, paralleling Troy in earlier Fences. However, on finishing his play, Wilson found the ending to stray from the empowered female character as well as from the question regarding self-worth. What The Piano Lesson finally seems to ask is: "What do you do with your legacy, and how do you best put it to use?" Set in 1936 Pittsburgh during the aftermath of the Great Depression, The Piano Lesson follows the lives of the Charles family in the Doaker Charles household and an heirloom, the family piano, which is decorated with designs carved by an enslaved ancestor. The play focuses on the arguments between a brother and a sister who have different ideas on what to do with the piano. The brother, Boy Willie, is a sharecropper who wants to sell the piano to buy the land (Sutter's land) where his ancestors toiled as slaves. The sister, Berniece, remains emphatic about keeping the piano, which shows the carved faces of their great-grandfather's wife and son during the days of their enslavement. The play was adapted into a film with the same name in 1995. The Piano Lesson è un'opera teatrale del drammaturgo afroamericano August Wilson, vincitrice del Premio Pulitzer per la drammaturgia nel 1990. Debuttato a Yale nel 1987, il dramma è il quarto dei dieci che compongono il Ciclo di Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh Cycle). The Piano Lesson (La Leçon de piano) est une pièce de théâtre de 1987 du dramaturge américain August Wilson. C'est la quatrième pièce du Pittsburgh Cycle de Wilson. Wilson a commencé à écrire cette pièce en jouant avec les différentes réponses concernant la possibilité « d'acquérir un sentiment d'estime de soi en niant son passé ». La Leçon de piano a reçu le prix Pulitzer de théâtre en 1990. Une peinture de Romare Bearden, La Leçon de piano, a inspiré Wilson à écrire une pièce mettant en vedette un personnage féminin fort pour affronter l'histoire afro-américaine, en parallèle avec Troy dans une pièce précédente, Fences. Cependant, à la fin de sa pièce, Wilson a trouvé que la fin s'éloignait du personnage féminin habilité ainsi que de la question de l'estime de soi. Ce que The Piano Lesson semble finalement demander, c'est : « Que faites-vous de votre héritage et comment l'utilisez-vous au mieux ? » Situé en 1936 à Pittsburgh au lendemain de la Grande Dépression, La Leçon de piano suit la vie de la famille Charles dans la maison Doaker Charles et un héritage, le piano familial, qui est décoré de motifs sculptés par un ancêtre esclave. La pièce se concentre sur les disputes entre un frère et une sœur qui ont des idées différentes sur ce qu'il faut faire avec le piano. Le frère, Boy Willie, est un métayer qui veut vendre le piano pour acheter la terre (la terre de Sutter) où ses ancêtres travaillaient comme esclaves. La sœur, Berniece, reste catégorique sur le fait de garder le piano, qui montre les visages sculptés de la femme et du fils de leur arrière-grand-père pendant les jours de leur esclavage. La pièce a été adaptée dans un film du même nom en 1995. Il a également été annoncé que LaTanya Richardson Jackson dirigerait une reprise de la pièce à Broadway en 2022, avec Samuel L. Jackson, Danielle Brooks et John David Washington. Le 30 septembre 2020, il a été annoncé que Denzel Washington prévoyait une nouvelle adaptation cinématographique pour Netflix avec Samuel L. Jackson et John David Washington. Le tournage devrait débuter à l'été 2021 à Pittsburgh.
