And the Pulitzer Prize Goes to...

Ruined.

Congratulations to playwright Lynn Nottage for the prestigious win. The play is running off-Broadway at MTC's City Center Stage I until May 10. Perhaps with the win, an extension might be in order. It's been a mixed year for the Manhattan Theatre Club. Their off-Broadway shows have been met with far more success than anything on-Broadway at the Biltmore this season. Regardless, kudos on the win to all those involved, including Chicago's Goodman Theatre, where the play had its world premiere.

According to Playbill, other finalists for the prize were Second Stage's Becky Shaw and the Tony-winning In the Heights. Interesting selections.
