Maine Premiere of a 2018 Pulitzer Prize winning play, this powerful drama set in Reading, PA examines the pressures put on a closeknit group of blue collar factory workers as globalization, recession, and the threat of the factory closing creates explosive battles along racial and ethnic fault lines, rupturing friendships while providing a clear-eyed and empathetic understanding of the plight of the disappearing middleclass in modern America.

Content Warning: This play contains strong language, substance abuse, depression, violence, racism and racial slurs, sexism and misogyny, and classism.

Time: 7:30 PM on March 1 & 2, 2:00 PM on March 3
