David Williamson ‘s Dead White Males (SOLD OUT)
Directed by Michael Gooley
This classic comedy from Australia’s leading playwright,
David Williamson, takes a satirical look at postmodern
literary theory and asks us to question whether there
really are basic truths of human nature. Angela, a 19-
year-old university student, has always believed that
William Shakespeare’s works contain the most
profound understanding of the human condition. But
when she has her worldview expanded by her literature
professor Grant Swain, she confronts her family
members with her new-found understanding of their
lives and finds the reality a little more complex than she
thought
