SWEAT was performed October 8th through October 16th, 2026 at Fordham University’s Pope Auditorium.

Synopsis: The play examines the intersecting stories of workers on strike, three female friends who work together in a plant, and the generational differences between these workers and their sons, Chris and Jason. Most of the play’s action takes place in a local bar run by Stan— a former factory worker who sustained a chronic disability when he injured his leg in a machine— and Oscar, a young Colombian—American man who helps with stocking and cleaning.
