CCM Plays: Intimate Apparel

INTIMATE APPARELBy Lynn NottageTorie Wiggins, alumni guest directorInspired by turn-of-the-century photographs of her own relatives, Nottage's play follows the life of Esther, a gifted African American seamstress living in New York City in 1905. Esther creates beautiful clothes for women from every part of society, but longs for her own romantic partner and home life. While drawn to the Hasidic shopkeeper who sells her cloth, she nonetheless begins a correspondence with a Caribbean man, George, who asks to marry her, sight unseen. A delicate and tender exploration of the human heart, Intimate Apparel won the 2004 New York Drama Critics Award for Best Play.Estimated run time: 2 hours and 15 minutes, plus one 15-minute intermission Location: Cohen Family Studio TheaterTickets: $26 adult, $15 student, $20 UC faculty/staff, $10 UC student, $5 CCM student; group discounts available.
