In this stirring new play from the team of two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage and director Kate Whoriskey (Ruined, Sweat), a truck stop sandwich shop offers its formerly incarcerated kitchen staff a shot at redemption. Even as Floyd, the shop’s callous owner, tries to keep them under her thumb, the staff members are given purpose and permission to dream by their shared quest to create the perfect sandwich. Starring GRAMMY and Academy ®Award -winning hip-hop legend Common as the enigmatic, zen-like chef who brings inspiration to the kitchen, Floyd’s is a funny, moving, and urgent new example of Nottage’s “genius for bringing politically charged themes to life by embodying them in ordinary characters living ordinary lives” (The Wall Street Journal).

In Nagasaki, playwright Rajiv Joseph reveals intimate mysteries through a series of letters between strangers, friends, daughters, and lovers — many with little in common but a hunger for human connection. ​Sending their hopes and dreams across oceans and years, they seek peace in one another while dreaming of a city once consumed by the scourge of war. ​A companion piece to Joseph’s play Animals Out of Paper, Nagasaki is the latest work from the Pulitzer Prize-nominated playwright hailed as “wonderfully daring, imaginative, and compassionate” (The New York Times).
