In a new
comedy from the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of Ruined, Lynn Nottage draws upon the
screwball films of the 1930’s to take a funny and irreverent look at racial
stereotypes in Hollywood. BY THE WAY, MEET VERA
STARK is a seventy year journey through the life of Vera Stark, a
headstrong African-American maid and budding actress, and her tangled
relationship with her boss, a white Hollywood star desperately grasping to hold
on to her career. When circumstances collide and both women land roles in the
same Southern epic, the story behind the cameras leaves Vera with a surprising
and controversial legacy scholars will debate for years to come.
