Solution

The correct option is D historical play
This play qualifies as a historical play because through the discussion happening between Rose, Troy and Bono we can gather that there was a time in sports when racial discrimination ran rampant - fact supported by historical evidence- but the characters here often reiterate that "times have changed a lot since then." However, it is evident from the passage that "that time" is not too far into the past. The play is definitely not a comedy or a farce or even a tragedy as it does not contain any element of these genres. So, D is the answer.
