| | By the Way, Meet Vera Stark
by Lynn Nottage
February 23-26 & March 2-5, 2023
It’s the Golden Age of Hollywood, and aspiring starlet Vera Stark works as a maid to Gloria Mitchell, a star grasping at her fading career. When circumstances collide and both women land roles in the same Southern epic, the story behind the cameras leaves Vera with a surprising legacy of the impact that race had on her controversial career. Two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner Lynn Nottage’s fast-paced, sly satire, takes you on a seventy-year journey through Vera’s life and the cultural climate that shaped her.
By the Way, Meet Vera Stark is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing,LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection (www.dramatists.com) | Buy Tickets |
