As an actor, Richardson Jackson has long been part of the countrywide, unofficial Wilson theatre company-she was part of the momentous 2008 Kennedy Center series of staged readings honouring his work and, in 2009, she played Bertha Holly in a Tony-nominated revival of the playwright’s “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone.” The production, now at the Ethel Barrymore, may be Richardson Jackson’s first time directing on Broadway-her 2013 directorial début, “Two Trains Running,” also by Wilson, at Atlanta’s True Colors Theatre Company, is her only other professional directing credit-but her touch here is deft, sure, confident. LaTanya Richardson Jackson’s star-studded Broadway revival of August Wilson’s “The Piano Lesson,” is, in a word, magnificent.
