Emmie is one of the only Black people living in Paris Vermont and she desperately needs a job. When she is hired at Berry's a store off the interstate selling everything from baby carrots to lawnmowers she begins to understand a new kind of isolation. Paris is a play about invisibility being underpaid and how it feels to work on your feet for ten hours a day.ÿ ?&?&?&?& "A remarkable new play! Part workplace comedy part social thriller. Booth's deft and delicate hand cuts with slow deliberation until it reaches the bone." - Naveen Kumar Time Out New York"Racism is a stealth force in Eboni Booth's astute and coolly observant new play. A solid addition to the genre of sociologically detailed working-class American dramas. Simple yet startling." - Ben Brantley The New York Times"A fierce distillation of life under modern precarity. The chill of this show went so deep... hilarious and dangerous." - Helen Shaw New York Magazine"A lean and impressive debut... Each character is both sharply written and played. Paris will transport you to a place that comes to feel as intimate and epic as the city with which it shares its name." - Tim Teeman The Daily Beast?&?&?&?& - Stanford Friedman New York Theatre Guide"Beguiling!" - Zachary Stewart TheaterMania
