2009 Adelaide Fringe smash hit returns with 4 shows only! A struggling student begs her professor for help& she gets something very different. The encounter soon sours and both suddenly find themselves grappling with the opposing needs of the other... Opinions collide, resulting in an epic power struggle born of seemingly trivial beginnings, crashing together the ideals of free speech with invasive political correctness. The result is explosive. Oleanna is theatrical dynamite. It will challenge everyone. Arguments will erupt in the bar. It is a truly divisive work guaranteed to elicit debate and emotive response. Whoever you side with, it might be easier to say you're wrong. David Mamet_x0019_ s brilliantly divisive, volcanic masterpiece with internationally acclaimed duo Guy Masterson (Under Milk Wood) & Adelaide-born Actress Joanne Hartstone. **** _x001C_ Masterson and Hartstone excel!_x001D_ (Advertiser) ***** "An absolute must-see!" (Times UK) "Everybody should experience the shock of this play." (Sunday Times) "Mamet's clenched fist to the gut - and intellect - a vicious and timely riff on sexual harassment and political correctness" (New Yorker) "There can be no tougher or more unflinching play than Oleanna" (Harold Pinter)
