Zooskool 8 Dogs In 1 Day

Two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning author Lynn Nottage’s play “Intimate Apparel” tells the story of a 1905 successful African American seamstress who makes revolutionary undergarments for an array of women – from high-society socialites to enterprising ladies of the night. Her business, innovative skills, and utter discretion are much in demand, but at 35, her personal life has taken a backseat. “Intimate Apparel” explores her forbidden relationships with an Orthodox Jewish fabric vendor, her privileged and struggling clientele, and a long-distance suitor who will profoundly change her life.

  • "Intimate Apparel is ultimately a play about hope, and Arizona Theatre Company’s superb production is a testament to the power of hope and perseverance in the face of adversity... "
    - Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway
  • "Tracey N. Bonner’s tour de force performance brings immense depth and gravitas to her role and strikes perfect balances in shaping a character that is possessed of humility, dignity, and tenacity."
    - Herb Paine, Broadway World
  • "Oz Scott’s sharp direction keeps the play gliding along on an exquisite unit set that transforms into the play’s various locales with swift fluidity and definition."
    - Chris Curcio, Curtain Up Phoenix
  • "Nottage is a poetic writer and a powerful storyteller. ATC gives her play the production it deserves."
    - Kathleen Allen, Arizona Daily Star
  • "A must-see production."
    - Herb Paine, Broadway World
