by Eboni Booth

Winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Eboni Booth's play Primary Trust is an arresting character study of an isolated man finding the courage to expand his world and begin again.

38-year-old Kenneth lives a comfortable life of routine in suburban New York. After days spent working at a used bookstore, he whiles away his evenings knocking back mai tais with his best friend Burt at the local tiki bar. But when the long-time bookstore owner decides to close up shop for good, Kenneth panics at the prospect of finding a new job, a process that unearths long-suppressed fears.

When Kenneth makes a new friend named Corrina, she begins to ask questions Kenneth isn't prepared to answer: how many mai tais is too many mai tais? And who - or what - is Burt?

Primary Trust is a deeply affecting play about the careful structures we build to contain oceans of feeling and what happens when those structures begin to crumble.

It was premiered off-Broadway at the Laura Pels Theatre in 2023.
