2017 Pulitzer Prize Winner
In the industrial town of Reading, Pennsylvania, a group of friends spend their days on the factory floor and their nights sharing drinks, secrets and laughs. But then layoffs and picket lines begin to erode their trust, and they find themselves pitted against each other in a scalding fight for self-preservation. A brave dive into the fractured heart of working-class America.

“In this exciting, Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Lynn Nottage shows why she's earned the title of one of the finest living contemporary playwrights in America.” – Chicago Theatre Review

Please be aware the show contains adult language including some intense racially charged language, adult situations, and some intense violence.
