Performances of the Theatre Department’s production of Naomi Wallace’s Slaughter City will continue from Thursday, Nov. 11, through Saturday, Nov. 13, at 8 p.m., in Minor Theater. The play is open to the public, and tickets cost $5 for adults, and $3 for senior citizens and students.

Directed by Hamilton Professor of Theatre Carole Bellini-Sharp, the play is inspired by events surrounding a strike at the Fischer Meat Packing plant in Louisville, Kentucky in 1993. Wallace's Slaughter City examines the power struggles and exchanges between those who perform labor and those who profit from it.
