Set in a rural meat factory where management is trying to break the union, Slaughter City explores the struggle to remain human in a mechanized, profit-driven culture. The play examines the interpersonal relationships between labor and management, as it focuses on the lives of four workers struggling to earn a living under hellish conditions. Roach and Maggot are childhood best friends, who have worked in the slaughterhouse their entire adult lives. Brandon is a smooth-talking kid who is quickly working his way up the factory ladder, and Cod is a relative new-comer, a non-union worker whom the others resent for crossing their pickets.
