Set in 1940s Pittsburgh, Seven Guitars is a play about the search for self-fulfillment and acceptance in a hostile world.

Winner of the New York drama Critics Circle award for Best New Play, it is a play whose epic proportions and abundant spirit remind us of what the American theater once was (Vincent Canby The New York Times). Floyd Schoolboy Barton has fallen on bad times since blowing the money he got for recording his song, That's All Right. Now the song is a hit, and he has one more chance to make it in life.
