Intimate Apparel

February 8-19 See website for specific dates and times
Intimate Apparel is a deeply moving portrait of Esther, an African-American seamstress who creates exquisite lingerie for women of both the boudoir and the brothel in 1905 Manhattan.  As years pass and young friends marry and leave the boarding house, Esther consoles her loneliness and deftly stitches beautiful things for other women’s intimate moments.  Then out of the blue, a stream of love letters begins to arrive from a handsome Barbadian laborer working on the Panama Canal.  This winner of five Best Play awards and contender for the  Pulitzer Prize is filled with desire, passion and betrayal.   Rated PG-15
