Packet 9: Tossup 6
In a play, a man shows up to one of these places instead of watching his “overpraised” brother swim in the Montreal Olympics. A character exclaims “you don’t know nothing about me!” in one of these places before showing a chest scar that he received from a white man who assaulted his mother. In 2024, a David Adjmi drama set in these places passed Slave Play for the most-ever Tony nominations. In one of these places, a woman’s nephew is unable to read the line “you done seen the best, now I’m gonna show you the rest” without (*) stuttering. Cutler, Slow Drag, and Toledo clash with the younger Levee in one of these places while working with the Coca Cola-drinking title character of an August Wilson play. For 10 points, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom is set in what sort of place, where performers might create cast recordings? ■END■
