New York City
Mama and the girls are in the kitchen early preparing her famous stew for a big event in Zora Howard’s humorous, haunting, and sharp 90-minute drama. As these three generations of Black women work through the recipe, and their grief, they begin to feel their past and present closing in. A finalist for the 2021 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Stew has a lot more simmering under the surface.
