HOME ECONOMICS by Declan Greene (VCA Grad Show)
Project type
Theatre
Date
September 2023
Location
VCA Marten Myer Arena
Role
Director
Real food, real mess and a sickly saturated design underpin our society’s complicated relationship with overindulgence of all kinds in this new staging of acclaimed theatre maker Declan Greene’s ‘Home Economics’. It is a lip-licking critique of where desire meets violence that will leave you starving for more.
The roll call for these pieces goes a little something like…
A gay home economics teacher tempted by his 14-year-old student.
A young girl bullied by two teen dreams because her teeth all rotted from too much sugar.
A sex worker paid to have dinner with a tantrum throwing businessman.
This work was presented as a part of the VCA Masters of Theatre Directing graduate season.
