Story/Teller Arts: Eboni Booth on Primary Trust with Heidi Schreck

In partnership with Theatre Communications Group, The Center for Fiction is thrilled to have welcomed playwright and actress Eboni Booth to discuss her 2024 Pulitzer Prize-winning play Primary Trust. Written as a dramatic stage play, Primary Trust is an elegant and arresting character study of an isolated man who finds a new job, new friends, and, in turn, a new sense of worth. Booth’s story reveals the courage required to expand one’s world and begin again. Booth was joined in conversation by Heidi Schreck, an award-winning playwright, screenwriter, and actress known for her celebrated plays What the Constitution Means to Me and Grand Concourse. The pair discussed the careful structures we all build to contain oceans of feeling—and what happens when those structures begin to crumble. In addition, William Jackson Harper (“The Good Place,” Midsommar), of the original Primary Trust cast, performed monologues from the play, and singer-songwriter Luke Wygodny, who performed the music for the play’s world premiere, accompanied with original music from the play.
