"Not all Australians think like Ziggi ... his side are just louder"
Talkback radio host Ziggi Blasco influences the mighty and the impotent through the airwaves of his city. He rants about the terrorist threat, attacks political correctness and extols the virtues of common sense. Sound familiar?
But in private, Ziggi's influence is rapidly shrinking as his family and domestic staff find him increasingly irrelevant and repulsive. Worse still, his father is threatening to reveal a devastating secret that could end his career and tear his world apart.
Written and set in 2005 in the wake of the cash for comment scandal, David Williamson's modern comedy of manners explores Australia's identity crisis at the beginning of the new millennium.
The cast comprises Emily Branford, Alicia Case, Michael Eustice, David Jobling, Cate Rogers, Tony Sampson and Kate Vanderhorst and the production is directed by award winning local actor and director, Brant Eustice.
Influence promises to be an entertaining and enlightening night that will get you thinking about the unthinking!
