What makes PRIMARY TRUST so special?

Actor DeShawn Harold Mitchell and Director Timothy Douglas share why they love the play, and why Cincinnati audiences will too. Watch, then join us before the final performance on Feb. 2. ____________________________ ABOUT THE SHOW Winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Drama! Written with profound affection for the hero at its center, Primary Trust is an achingly beautiful, modern-day tale that celebrates friendship and connection. Meet Kenneth, a shy, Black 38-year-old man who sells books by day and drinks mai tais with his best friend Bert by night. When Kenneth is suddenly laid off from his job, the walls of his comfortable, predictable life start to crumble until he finds kindness and friendship in unlikely places. Hailed by critics as “utterly absorbing” (The Daily Beast) and “wonderfully vivid” (The New York Times), this recent off-Broadway hit paints a heartening portrait of a life that’s far from simple.
