The Carnivores (23rd September to 18th October)
By Ian Wilding
It's a hungry world where more is never enough
Winner of the 2005 Griffin Award for New Australian Playwriting
Brothers Thom and Gramme are small players in the ethical murkiness of global capitalism, both up-market and black-market. As they grapple with family loyalty, rapacious multinationals, sexual opportunism and drug deals, they must also confront a wider world in the grip of political turmoil.
The Carnivores is an urban black comedy that peels back the surface of contemporary life to consider what humanity really means.
“Among the select few voices writing for the Australian stage who is politically minded, uncompromising and not averse to risk” Sydney Morning Herald
