Next at Trinity Rep: Producing Pulitzers

By Caitlin Howle

With our upcoming production of Sweat by Lynn Nottage, which won the Pulitzer Prize in Drama in 2017, we take a look at the history of Pulitzer Prize-winners produced here at Trinity Rep and are proud to continue to showcase these inspiring works. The Pulitzer Prize in Drama is awarded once a year and has recognized plays since 1918, spotlighting American authors who write original works about life in America. Sweat will be our 27th Prize winner — though we have produced some more than once. Lynn Nottage is the only woman to have won the prize more than once — her first being the 2009 award for Ruined. She is currently a professor in playwriting at Columbia University, but she has a local connection as a Brown University graduate. Her plays are currently produced worldwide. Now, take a look at our list of Pulitzer Prize winners here at Trinity Rep and get ready for our next production, Sweat, running April 2 – May 3.
