The novel solidified Price’s emergence as among the best Southern writers of his generation receiving the William Faulkner Award, and he would go on to teach English at Duke University for more than 50 years, and to pen more than 40 novels, plays, and collections of poetry and short stories.

There will be New Music preview performances, and pay-what-you-can performances as well. Triad Stage also presents Technically Talking,-behind the scenes discussions with members of the design team, and PostScript discussions with the cast. New Music is also part of the Greensboro Public Library’s "One City, One Author" program with a month long celebration of over two dozen events honoring North Carolina native Reynolds Price and his work. Triad Stage will play host to some of these free events including a poetry reading on April 10 titled Toasts for Reynolds with Vic Stranberg.
