Primary Trust

Everyman Theatre
315 W. Fayette St Baltimore

Sometimes we all feel a little stuck. In this captivating, humorous, and thought-provoking new play - hailed as a New York Times Critic's Pick - we meet Kenneth, a shy and gentle man who is forced to rejoin society after being fired from his bookstore job. With the help of his best friend Bert and a few new friends he meets along the way, he slowly finds the courage to overcome his grief and find joy in new beginnings.

"...Eboni Booth has stated that her play is "about being hungry for connection" and "being aware of the gift of other people." As Kenneth tells us in his introductory narration, "I don't believe in God or heaven or hell, but I do believe in friends." The town motto is "Welcome friend, you're right on time!" So do yourself a favor and see this play. It's an unforgettable theatrical experience-and bring a friend!"

"...Primary Trust is the name of a bank in the show, but also the theme of the show. Who do you turn to when the world is terrifying? How do you navigate when you don’t have the vocabulary to ask for help? What is it like to be invisibly damaged while appearing to be fully functional? How do you learn to interact with and love others when your lifetime experience is one of being “othered”? Primary Trust doesn’t ask these questions, or fully answer them, but it certainly provokes them in a discerning audience."
