  • Slaves in Algiers, or A Struggle for Freedom is a play written by Susanna Haswell Rowson in 1794. It is her first and only surviving play. First staged at the New Theatre (later renamed the Chestnut Street Theatre) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on 30 June 1794, Rowson's comic opera engages with the Barbary captivity crisis. While the play is not considered to have great literary merit, it is discussed for its complex mix of political agendas, which offer insight into its period of early US history. It expresses an early feminism, desires for American imperialism in the Islamic world, and uses antisemitism to excuse the failings of capitalism. (en)
