Primary Trust
WRITTEN BY EBONI BOOTH
WINNER OF THE 2024 PULITZER PRIZE FOR DRAMA
PRIMARY TRUST is a warm, funny and deeply moving story about finding the courage to step into the unknown. Kenneth’s life revolves around routine, familiar faces and conversations with his loyal friend, Bert. But when a sudden change disrupts his carefully constructed world, he discovers that friendship, healing and unexpected opportunities may be waiting just beyond the limits of his comfort zone.
Running time: 1 hour, 30 minutes with no intermission.

Best Theater of 2023! The glory of both the writing and acting was in letting us experience the character’s sadness and, even more, the hard work behind his efforts to stay afloat in a painful world.
Eboni Booth’s portrait of one man's loneliness and the danger of coping mechanisms will restore your faith in theater’s elemental storytelling powers. And make you cry...
NYC’s best new play... Beautifully written... a buffed-to-gleaming jewel, following the life of a handsome, charming man named Kenneth... who – capsized early in life by a horrifically traumatic event – struggles, mulls, deflects, and cheerfully and not-so-cheerfully interrogates how to progress with his life in the suburb of Cranberry, New York.
