The Homosexuals, or Faggots
A provocative play that takes the piss out of hypocrites on both the right and the left.
Overview
If you're the kind of person who is quick to take offence, you might want to give the latest play from writer Declan Greene a miss. Indeed, all you need to do is look at the title to know that The Homosexuals, or Faggots, is not the kind of show to pull its punches.
On stage at the Malthouse Theatre from February 17 to March 12, Greene's blistering social satire follows Warren and Kim, a pair of wealthy gay men who find themselves in an awkward situation involving a politically incorrect costume party and an easily offended academic. What follows is a farce that takes the piss out of hypocrites on both the right and the left, and has been described by the playwright himself as one of the more provocative things he's ever written.
