Riassunto

“The single most daring thing I’ve seen in a theater in a long time.” — Wesley Morris, New York Times

The Old South lives on at the MacGregor Plantation—in the breeze, in the cotton fields…and in the crack of the whip. Nothing is as it seems, and yet everything is as it seems. Slave Play rips apart history to shed new light on the nexus of race, gender, and sexuality in twenty-first-century America.

Testo aggiuntivo

"This wildly imaginative work asserts itself with a daringness rarely seen on our stages these days."
