Description
Sweat by Lynn Nottage is a powerful drama that explores the struggles of working-class Americans. Based on extensive interviews with residents of Reading, Pennsylvania, the play sheds light on the devastating impact of big business on ordinary people's lives. In this poignant tale, friends are pitted against each other as financial devastation looms on the horizon. The American Dream is put to the test in a story that feels uncomfortably familiar yet painfully relevant today. First performed in Oregon in 2015, Sweat went on to receive its UK premiere at the Donmar Warehouse, London, before winning Best Play at the Evening Standard Theatre Awards in 2019.
