[dramatic orchestral music playing]

[Jeremy O. Harris] Slave Play is a comedy of sorts.

It should be played as such.

The events of the play are happening in real time.

Southern accents should be used,

deeply and broadly,

until they are not.

You will know when.

Perhaps the spaces on the MacGregor Plantation

are literalized with deep verisimilitude.

This is preferred in some ways.

But... if they are not, they should be presented

with the bareness of a black box.

An aesthetic that will telegraph to an audience:

"If only they had more money,

but they are doing what they can."

This is a play about shades, colors

as much as it is about race.

Color play, shade play.

They should be of interest to those casting this piece.

What does it mean if Gary isn't "blue-black"

but just "black black"?

Does it change his relationship to the space?

In my mind, yes.

Everything in life is a performance.

The performance I have chosen to engage with

for this piece is one that looks at

our collective imagination

about the Antebellum American South.

- I'm sorry. - Yes.

[Jeremy] Gary, 27, a dark--

...36, a white woman who wants more than the world

sees fit for her.

[Jeremy] Dustin, 28, a white man

but the lowest type of white:

dingy, an off-white.
