New Stages presents Clyde’s

Sunday, June 14 • 7:00 PM
Historic Market Hall

From the Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright behind Sweat, Clyde’s is a sharp, funny, unexpectedly tender comedy set inside a truck-stop sandwich shop—one of those fluorescent-lit corners of the world where people don’t so much “start over” as try again. The staff are folks living on the edge, searching for redemption after incarceration, and clinging—sometimes hilariously, sometimes fiercely—to the one thing they can control: building the perfect sandwich.

What starts as a daily grind of orders and insults becomes something stranger and more hopeful: a shared quest for craft, meaning, and a kind of dignity you can hold in your hands. With heart, wit, and plenty of bite, this season-ending staged reading serves up a story about second chances, found family, and the small rituals that keep us going—especially when the world hasn’t exactly made room for you.

Content advisory: strong language and mature themes.
Recommended audience: 14+
