Slaughter City

The play was inspired by a number of labor-related incidents including the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire of 1911 and the 1993 strike at the Fischer's meat packing plant in Louisville, Kentucky.

The drama follows the lives of a group of workers who work at a modern day plant.

Into the fray walks Cod, a strange young man who tries to inspire them to action.

The play is divided into two acts and moves back and forth (and sometimes seemingly sideways) through time.

Love, desire and friendship between these workers is disrupted, and transformed by the political pressures swirling around them.
