Trinity Rep kicks off the new year with the Rhode Island premiere of Intimate Apparel, by Pulitzer Prize-winner Lynn Nottage, sponsored by Brown University with supporting sponsor Ruth's Lingerie. Directed by Trinity Rep company member Janice Duclos, the show begins previews tonight, January 30 in the Dowling Theater and continues through March 2, 2014. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
This beautifully written and critically acclaimed play is set at the beginning of the 20th century and was inspired by Nottage's own family history. Intimate Apparel centers on Esther, a black seamstress who creates intimate garments for the women of New York City. Nottage's Intimate Apparel tells a deeply moving story of romance and survival.
