New York City, 1905. Esther, a black seamstress, sews intimate apparel for rich white women and well-paid black prostitutes. Lonely and longing for a husband and a future, she begins corresponding with a Caribbean man working on the Panama Canal, who persuades her to marry him, sight unseen. Meanwhile, Esther’s heart lies with the Hasidic shopkeeper from whom she buys cloth, but the impossibility of the match is obvious to them both. Winner of New York Drama Critics’ Circle and Outer Critics Circle awards.
"I’m thrilled to be able to bring Lynn Nottage’s work to the Playhouse stage. This is a play that has intrigued me for almost a decade, and I’m happy to be able to share it with our audience. It’s a beautiful love story!" - Annie Keefe
