VA Rep presents the Pulitzer-Prize winning Primary Trust - A recent off-Broadway hit by playwright Eboni Booth, Primary Trust is an insightful exploration of vulnerability, isolation, and the unexpected friendships that can blossom in the face of adversity.

When a shy 38 year-old’s carefully constructed life—a routine of books, Mai-Tais, and conversations with his best friend—collapses, Kenneth must suddenly confront his past and brave the outside world.

Hailed by critics as “spryly comic and as poignant” (LA Times) and “wonderfully vivid” (The New York Times), this uplifting, Pulitzer-prize winning play explores change, the resilience of the human spirit, and the courage it takes to forge new paths in life.

On stage March 5 - 29,
Wednesdays (2 or 7PM), Thursdays & Fridays 7PM, Saturdays (2 AND 7 PM), Sundays 3PM

Jeremy is a Singer-songwriter that grew up in rural Southern Virginia. His music is a raucous blend of American roots music, including elements of Old Time, folk, Rockabilly, and Country Blues. Through the songs he writes or interprets he hopes to tell the stories of the places, personalities and situations that are present here in rural America. His live performances consist of spirited high energy originals sprinkled with unique renditions and arrangements of traditional tunes and old standards. He plays extensively throughout Central and Southern Virginia where he has has begun to build a following for his unique approach and original material.

During the Civil War, the utility and widespread availability of opium and morphine made opiates essential to wartime medicine. After the war ended, thousands of ailing soldiers became addicted, or “enslaved,” as nineteenth-century Americans phrased it. Veterans, their families, and communities struggled to cope with addiction’s health and social consequences. Medical and government authorities compounded veterans’ suffering and imbued the epidemic with cultural meaning by branding addiction as a matter of moral weakness, unmanliness, or mental infirmity. Drawing from veterans’ firsthand accounts as well as mental asylum and hospital records, government and medical reports, newspaper coverage of addiction, and advertisements, Jonathan S. Jones unearths the poorly understood stories of opiate-addicted Civil War veterans in unflinching detail, illuminating the war’s traumatic legacies. In doing so, Jones provides critical historical context for the modern opioid crisis, which bears tragic resemblance to that of the post–Civil War era.

About the Artist:
Jeff Allen may (or may not) want to admit it, but he’s getting old. At 69, Jeff is staring down his 70th year and decided it might be time to think about slowing down. The result? My First Final Farewell Tour kicks off March 1, 2026. Yes, you read that right—“First” and “Final” in the same sentence—because Jeff’s not totally sure he’s done. (After all, Cher had 20 farewell tours, and Elton John is still out there.)
What he is sure of: he’s bringing a mix of fan favorites and fresh new material to the stage. From the classic Happy Wife, Happy Life routine you’ve been quoting for years, to fresh takes on marriage, family, and everyday life, Jeff is pulling it all together for a night that’s hilarious, unforgettable, and uplifting.
