A young female playwright and an older male director find themselves
alone in an empty theatre one night. She wants a new form of theatre
that dismantles capitalism and overturns the patriarchy. He’s turned
on by the commercial potential of her rage. A showdown between male
and female, young and old, Ella Hickson’s incendiary new play comes
to Adelaide after an explosive world premiere in London where it was
described as “unflaggingly provocative, metatheatrical and
inventive”. Starring Emily Barclay (ABC's Please Like Me), The
Writer is a ferocious new work that rocks the very foundations upon
which theatre is built. Bundle The Writer as part of a 4-8 play
