“A justly acclaimed, beautifully written, and intensely personal play…” (Chicago Tribune) from two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lynn Nottage comes the soon-to-be classic, Intimate Apparel. Set in 1905 New York, Esther works as a seamstress sewing exquisite lingerie for an array of clients, but her skill with needle and thread has led to an absence of a personal life. As Esther explores a forbidden romance with an Orthodox Jewish fabric vendor and a long-distance courtship with a worker building the Panama Canal, she also gets exclusive access into the private lives of her clients. Nottage explores a distinct time period in New York and “honors a legacy of a woman, and those like her, whom history nearly forgot.” (Broadstreet Reviews)

Estimated Runtime: Two hours including one 15 minute intermission
