Lincoln Center Theater presents Greater Clements, a new play by Samuel D. Hunter, directed by David McCallum, as part of its 2019-2020 season.
The once-proud mining town of Clements, Idaho is rapidly disintegrating. As Maggie prepares to close one of the town’s last remaining businesses, a visitor arrives on her doorstep, resurrecting long-buried hope and shame rooted in her family’s past and the town’s history. Now, for the first time in nearly fifty years, Maggie is forced to consider if the life she envisioned for herself at seventeen might still be possible today.
Two-time Tony Award winner Judith Ivey is set to star in Lincoln Center Theater's world premiere of Greater Clements, written by Samuel D. Hunter and directed by Davis McCallum, which is scheduled to begin previews at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater on November 14, 2019, ahead of an official opening on December 9 and a limited engagement through January 19, 2020.
