ABOUT THE SHOW

Winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Primary Trust by Eboni Booth, is a humorous, tender and deeply moving story about friendship, change, and the courage to begin again. Kenneth lives a simple, predictable life, working at a bookstore by day and spending evenings with his best friend at a local bar. But when an unexpected layoff upends his routine, Kenneth is forced to step beyond the safety of what he knows. Gentle, funny, and deeply human, Primary Trust explores loneliness, imagination, and the courage to build genuine connections and thrive in one’s life.
