The Department of Theater presents Lynn Nottage's Sweat. The Pulitzer Prize-winning play portrays a meeting between a parole officer, two ex-convicts and three women who were childhood friends and had worked in the same factory.

Ben Brantley of The New York Times called Sweat a "bracingly topical portrait of American dreams deferred in working-class Pennsylvania," written by "a justly acclaimed dramatist of ambitious scope and fierce focus."
