This one was for work, not pleasure! A play based on the great grandmother of Esther a black New York seamstress loves Mr Marks a jewish haberdasher. Due to the moral codes of the time both know the relationship is doomed. Esther ends up marrying George, a Caribbean labourer who wooed her through a series of letters. After spending all Esther's savings on gambling and prostitutes he leaves her penniless and pregnant. A great play brought to life by an excellent cast
