Jeremy O. Harris’ controversial work Slave Play is opening on Broadway. It will begin previews on September 10 and open on October 6 at the Golden Theatre.
Reprising their performances from the world premiere at New York Theatre Workshop will be Paul Alexander Nolan (Bright Star) as Jim, Ato Blankson-Wood (The Rolling Stone) as Gary, James Cusati-Moyer (Six Degrees of Separation) as Dustin, Sullivan Jones (The Winning Side) as Phillip, Chalia La Tour (The Good Fight) as Teá, Irene Sofia Lucio (King Liz) as Patricia and Annie McNamara (Everyone’s Fine With Virginia Woolf) as Alana. They’ll be joined by Joaquina Kalukango (The Color Purple) as Kaneisha.
Slave Play follows the lives of six people living at the MacGregor Plantation, where fear and desire entwine in the shadow of the Master’s House.
The production is scheduled to play a 17-week limited engagement through January 5, 2020.
MALE NUDITY in NEW YORK STAGE 
Saw last Friday. Very good, thought provoking play. I did not see the off Broadway production so can’t compare the level of nudity. Nolan is starkers the last scene but the stage is very dimly lit. Could not make out the size/cut status of his cock but he appears to be more of a grower than a shower. All the men in the play are very handsome with great bodies. This is very much an actor’s play – go for the content rather than the nudity.
