Description L.O. Sloan's production was devised as part of the American bicentenary celebrations. Writing in "The Age" (13/12/1980), Peter Weiniger described the play as

"a rollicking history of the American minstrel era and in the same instance, a hard look at the heavy price paid by blacks for the right to enter the mainstream of the entertainment industry."
