Whichever side you choose, you’ll be wrong.

OLEANNA premiered 30 years and is still recognised as one of the most significant and fascinating plays of the late 20th Century – a contemporary classic about power, language, and sexual harassment.

A male college Professor and his female student meet in his office to discuss her grades and in a terrifyingly short time become participants in a modern reprise of The Inquisition. Innocuous remarks turn damning, banter gives way to heated assault, and the relationship between teacher and student turns into an X-ray of the mechanisms of censorship, abuse, and tragedy.

OLEANNA is a work that remains relevant to the present and speaks immediately and urgently to the zeitgeist of our times. We promise a stimulating night of theatre that will definitely provoke discussion and debate.” – David Mealor, Flying Penguin Productions Artistic Director
