Clyde's

by Lynn Nottage

January 31 - February 17, 2024

Run Time: ~90 minutes

A story of solidarity and second chances that serves up the funny in short order. Down the road from Stan’s bar in Reading, PA, Jason joins a motley crew of former inmates who grill up great new grub for truckers in a bid for the perfect sandwich despite the terrifying owner dishin’ out some serious side-eye!

“It’s about striving for perfection and realising there is no such thing as the perfect sandwich or the perfect song or the perfect dance. What there is is just the intention, the process, and the joy that goes into creating.”

-Lynn Nottage during an interview with The Guardian

Reviews:

At Clyde’s, sandwiches aren’t just convenient meals served at lunch and dinner; they tell stories, hold truths, and nourish dreams… the drama blossoms into a poignant story about worker solidarity and the meaning of second chances, loaded with laugh-out-loud funny jokes. …If Sweat cataloged the pain of betrayal, then Clyde’s finds itself exploring not just good versus evil, but the strength of solidarity.

          –Lovia Gyarkye, The Hollywood Reporter

“…flavor-bomb of a comedy about survival, second chances, and digesting whatever life serves up… a subversion of familiar genres, including drawing room comedy and workplace drama, and the value judgments conventionally inherent to them. By nature of her composition, Nottage also questions which sorts of rooms and people have previously been considered worthy of sustained attention.
          –Variety

The 5x5 was wonderful—with one rehearsal! Loved the chance to listen to the Q&A with the actors and to shake their hands. Looking forward to Sweat.
