THESE PEOPLE

This kaleidoscopic play utilises transcripts of interviews, media reports, departmental fact-sheets and submissions to the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission Inquiry into Children in Immigration Detention. Ellis creates an inventive, challenging, disturbing and yet humorous play that contrasts a 'typical' Australian nuclear family with life in detention centres.

‘… it’s wonderful to see new Australian writing that is culturally relevant, theatrically imaginative, and daring’, Sydney Morning Herald

‘Ellis takes a novel line. He doesn’t point the finger at politicians, policy makers or bureaucrats, but suggests instead that you and I – selfish, apathetic and disinterested citizens that we are – are implicated in the maltreatment of refugees.’ Sun Herald
