The Buffalo State Theater Department and Casting Hall Productions proudly present Intimate Apparel, a play by Lynn Nottage, in the Donald Savage Building's Flexible Theatre.

Directed by Lara D. Haberberger, lecturer of theater. Featuring student actors Keion Abrams, Shae Brockington, Roselynn Corrado, Monique Godfrey, Aqueira Roberts Oshun, and Nathaniel Schumacher, and student lighting designer Mariah Faulkner. 

Intimate Apparel tells the story of Esther, an African American seamstress in 1905 Manhattan, who makes exquisite undergarments for high-end clients and embarks on an unlikely romance. Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lynn Nottage stitches together a tale of romance, greed, and ambition—and a tender story of seeking real friendship across the vast social gulf separating a seamstress and a socialite, the yearning of inter-racial as well as interfaith love, and the persistence of spirit as Esther tries to craft a life as beautiful as one of her camisoles.

Four performances only: October 9, 10, 11, at 8:00 p.m., and October 12 at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are on sale now at the Rockwell Hall Box Office, 878-3005, or online.
