Intimate Apparel
By Lynn Nottage

The story of a Black seamstress in 1905 New York City. Variety says, “The play offers poignant commentary on an era when the cut and color of one’s dress - and of course skin -determined who one could and could not marry, sleep with or even talk to in public.”

In 1905 New York, stark social divides contrast with a dynamic influx of immigrants. An African-American seamstress, Esther skillfully navigates this world, crafting fine intimate apparel for a diverse clientele, from elites to the marginalized. Despite dreams of opening a beauty parlor, she feels life passing by. Romance blooms through letters from Panama-based George Armstrong. Lynn Nottage’s "Intimate Apparel" explores independence, connection, and the impacts of racism and classism. “The play offers poignant commentary on an era when the cut and color of one’s dress - and of course skin -determined who one could and could not marry, sleep with or even talk to in public,” Variety Magazine.

Proof
By David Auburn

On the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday, Catherine, a troubled young woman, has spent years caring for her brilliant but unstable father, a famous mathematician. Now, following his death, she must deal with her own volatile emotions; the arrival of her estranged sister, Claire; and the attentions of Hal, a former student of her father’s who hopes to find valuable work in the 103 notebooks that her father left behind. Over the long following weekend, a burgeoning romance and the discovery of a mysterious notebook draw Catherine into the most difficult problem of all: How much of her father’s madness—or genius—will she inherit?

Winner of the 2001 Tony Award® for Best Play, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2001 Drama Desk Award for Best Play

Little Shop of Horrors
Music by Alan Menken and lyrics and a book by Howard Ashman

One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows, this charmingly tongue-in-cheek musical comedy has devoured the hearts of theatergoers for over 30 years. It is a delectable sci-fi horror musical with an electrifying 1960s pop/rock score. Seymour Krelborn is a meek and dejected assistant at a floral shop who happens upon a strange plant, which he affectionately names “Audrey II” after his crush at the shop. Little does he know that this strange and unusual plant will develop a soulful R&B voice, a potty mouth, and an unquenchable thirst for HUMANS.

Winner of the 1982 –1983 New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Musical, the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Musical
