In the 1970s, when licensed cabs refused to service Pittsburgh’s predominantly black Hill District, Jim Becker establishes a rideshare service to meet the needs of his community.
Faced with the devastating news that the city is about to shut down their business, Becker and his cab drivers struggle to confront an uncertain future. An emotional family reunion, generational conflict, and workplace gossip set the stage for drama as each man fights to prevail in the face of adversity.
By August Wilson. Directed by Ruben Santiago-Hudson.
