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 suddenly 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.
David Mealor, Flying Penguin Productions Artistic Director, says “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.”
