Tony-nominated playwright Jeremy O. Harris announced plans to pull Slave Play from its West Coast premiere at Los Angeles' Center Theatre Gro
Playwright says he hopes a female colleague’s work can replace his celebrated drama
The history-making production is being canceled because the hosting theater was not working with enough female playwrights.
The playwright is calling attention to a lack of female writers in Center Theatre Group's upcoming slate.
“As a playwright who holds dear the principles of both inclusion it was a shock to realize that this season was programmed with only 1 woman across all theatres,” Harris wrote.
