Clyde’s

'It’s kind of a ritual, we speak the truth. Then, let go and cook.'

In the bustling kitchen of a run-down Pennsylvania truck stop, the formerly incarcerated staff have been given a second chance. Under the tyrannical eye of their boss Clyde, this unlikely team strives to create the perfect sandwich, as they dream of leaving their past mistakes behind for a better life.

Lynn Nottage’s hilarious and hopeful play Clyde’s premiered in 2021 at the Guthrie Theater, Minneapolis, becoming the most-produced play in the United States the following year. It received its European premiere at the Donmar Warehouse, London, in 2023, directed by Lynette Linton, who also directed the British premiere of Nottage’s play Sweat at the Donmar.

Lynn Nottage has twice won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Her other plays include Intimate ApparelCrumbs from the Table of JoyRuinedBy the Way, Meet Vera Stark and Mlima’s Tale.
