About the play

A union organizer attempts to rally Mary Anne Rowen Jackson's family and fellow miners into striking against the Blue Star Mining Company.

The Kentucky Cycle is a series of nine one-act plays that explores American West, through the intertwined histories of three fictional families struggling over a portion of land in the Cumberland Plateau. The play won the 1992 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
