Sara, an enslaved rebel turned Union spy, and Sandra, a tenured professor in a modern-day private university, are having parallel experiences of institutional racism, though they live over a century apart. The latest work from MacArthur Genius Fellow Dominique Morisseau leaps through time to trace the identities of these two Black American women and explore the reins that racial and gender bias still hold on American educational systems today.
Confederates contains strong adult language, partial nudity, adult themes around race and gender, and descriptions and depictions of anti-Black and anti-Female sentiments and violence. Recommend for ages 16+
“Beautiful language that’s wedded to tales of adversity — the play is full of such paradoxes... a work about racism that is truly funny.” – NY Times Critics’ Pick
