It was over fifty years ago when designer Boris Aronson famously let a large mirror hang from the set of CABARET, forcing audience members to see their own reflections to bring home the point that what was happening in 1930s Germany could very well happen in America.

Harris' extremely daring, highly original and undoubtedly thought-provoking satirical drama, SLAVE PLAY.
