Slave Play, Paperback / softback Book

Slave Play Paperback / softback

Part of the NHB Modern Plays series

Paperback / softback

Description

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.

Jeremy O. Harris's Slave Play rips apart history to shed new light on the nexus of race, gender and sexuality in twenty-first-century America.

It opened at New York Theatre Workshop in November 2018, and transferred to Broadway the following year. 'How to explain Harris? He is like Tennessee Williams, if Williams had been Prince. Or Truman Capote, if Capote had been Paradise Garage.

He is a firebrand writer with whipcrack humour. He has two brilliant plays under his belt, Slave Play and Daddy.

He is such a queer hero of our times that the New York neighbourhood he lives in has become fleetingly famous.

One of Jeremy O. Harris's plays coming to London is a major event' Evening Standard
