This is the story about a fictitious donut factory where all they do is make donuts. The production manager, a curious fellow with an even curious-er name &ndash;Mr. Sales Manager, is in charge of collecting the donuts and taking them to his regional manager, who then passes them on to the factory owner. <br><br>One day Sales Manager&#39;s boss came to him with a direct order &ndash; &quot;Sales…you have to make more donuts!&quot; In fact they wanted Sales to make twice as many donuts, without adding staff or any other support (sound familiar?). <br><br>Well like most people, Sales Manager was stressed about how this was going to happen. But like a good soldier he went to work trying to make it happen, but nothing worked. Until one day a savior arrived with a different approach to making more donuts. <br><br>This is the story of that stranger and how his unique and simple ideas transformed the life of one Sales Manager, and helped him achieve his goals!<br><br>Perhaps you know a Sales Manager in your life who could use the same ideas to create more dough!

&ldquo;It is a meditation on Chicago&rsquo;s old soul . . . a witty, seductive, live-wire and greatly entertaining dark comedy that you just don&rsquo;t want to end.&rdquo; &ndash;Chicago Tribune &ldquo;The sting, the speed and marksmanship of the gimcracks his characters fire at each other . . . drips the kind of soulful, energized sarcasm that has long characterized [Letts&rsquo;] work as an actor and playwright.&rdquo;&ndash;Time Out Chicago Tracy Letts, who won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for his epic, caustic Oklahoma family drama August: Osage County, has shifted gears with this entertaining comedy set in a donut shop. A love letter to the city where he has lived for more than twenty years, Letts describes his new work as &ldquo;an exploration of the Chicago storefront experience.&rdquo; The play takes place in the north side neighborhood of Uptown, where Arthur Przybyszewski runs the donut shop that has been in his family for sixty years. More content to spend the day smoking weed and reminiscing about his Polish immigrant father, Arthur hires a shop assistant, the young African American Franco Wicks, who has both an unpublished novel and unpaid gambling debt. Superior Donuts premiered at Steppenwolf Theatre Company and recently opened on Broadway&mdash;following the same path of success as Letts&rsquo; previous work. Tracy Letts is the author of Killer Joe, Bug, Man from Nebraska (nominated for the 2004 Pulitzer Prize), and August: Osage County (awarded the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama). He is a member of Chicago&rsquo;s Steppenwolf Theatre Company.
