by Lynn Nottage
“An enthralling piece of theater that tells a fascinating story in a daringly original way… Riveting.” —Terry Teachout, Wall Street Journal

Her other plays include Clyde’s; the book for the musical adaptation of The Secret Life of Bees; Intimate Apparel; By the Way, Meet Vera Stark; Fabulation, or The Re-Education of Undine; Crumbs from the Table of Joy; and Las Meninas.
