Why Can’t Women Be Like Men?
 

Love. Loss. Religion. Sexuality. Pleasure. Pain.

At a pivotal point in all their lives, four women come together to celebrate a birthday. As the bubbly flows, the façades fall away and expose the many ways in which each woman’s life is anything but ‘normal’.

But should it have to be? And who defines what is normal?

A fictionalisation of the culmination of over two decades in psychological practice, Why Can’t Women Be Like Men? explores the sexuality and intimate relationships of cross-generational characters.

Directed by Olivia Staaf, this play marks the triumphant debut of senior CALD playwright, Grazia Marin. Starring Amelia DunnVeronicka DevlinLisa Sharpe and Piera Dennerstein as the four women representing many, this work has the power to create necessary discourse around issues women face regarding sexual choice and societal control.
