Ensemble Theatre Presents AT ANY COST?, 7/7-8/21
Ensemble Theatre presents Williamson's AT ANY COST?, July 7 through August 21.
Faith, a seventy-seven year old woman is gravely ill. The family must decide whether her intensive care treatment should be prolonged. Her husband Des loves her dearly and can't bear to have any part in ending her life, but her three children vary sharply in their attitudes. The power of modern medicine can prolong life but is there any point if the life prolonged is poor? The family conflict becomes intense, generating both dark humour and shock as devastating family secrets are inevitably revealed.
David Williamson is Australia's most performed playwright with eleven Australian Writer's Guild script awards and five Australian Film Institute screenplay awards to his credit. Mohamed Khadra is the Professor of Surgery at Sydney University and the author of two compelling books about the medical profession, MAKING THE CUT, and THE PATIENT.
