    About This Event

    Joe Turner's Come and Gone at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre features Cedric the Entertainer, Ruben Santiago-Hudson and Taraji P. Each brings a distinct theatrical pedigree—Cedric's comic timing and rhythmic control, Santiago-Hudson's Tony-winning, text-driven precision, and Taraji P.'s emotional directness—to August Wilson's play.
