WORLD PREMIERE • THIS INSTANT CLASSIC IS TO DIE FOR 
In this new installment of his century-spanning chronicle of the Black experience inspired by his mentor August Wilson, Pittsburgh theater legend Mark Clayton Southers turns back the clock to 1849 Oklahoma. There, free man Lawrence Ebitt and his wife Eula live peacefully preparing bodies for burial with care and respect, until their world is turned upside down by a bounty hunter who gets more than he bargained for and a fugitive determined to forge his own future. This Western-Comedy-Revenge play is a genre-defying world premiere spiked with heart-stopping revelations. 

 

Pittsburgh Public Theater brings THE COFFIN MAKER straight to your living room with the launch of Public On Demand, our new effort to make sure you get to experience Public productions again and again — OR, for the first time from the comfort of your couch!

Your virtual ticket also includes bonus behind-the-scenes content from artists and educators that bring you closer to the story than ever before. THE COFFIN MAKER is available on Public On Demand for a 3-day rental period at any point now through July 14, while supplies last.
