In this subject, plays from contemporary Australian theatre are studied through the lens of colonisation - with particular focus on Australian Indigenous and other cultural contexts. Special attention is paid to periods of intensive activity in playwriting and the role of theatre in reflecting constructed Australian cultural standpoints. Students read and critique a range of texts selected for their engagement with Indigenous Australians, class, gender, sexual orientation, and the migrant experience.
