.
Set in a fictional dictatorship, two actors are kidnapped and forced to perform a [REDACTED] propaganda play called The [REDACTED] of [REDACTED].
A university student named [REDACTED] decides that now is the time to bring justice to the regime that [REDACTED] her parents.
Meanwhile, the [REDACTED] leader, General Ferdinand, ignores the issues of his country in favour of writing an “educational” script that glorifies his [REDACTED] image for the great unwashed masses.
Written by award-winning playwright, [REDACTED][REDACTED], The Triumph of Man: A Comedy in Two Acts is a whimsical farce that examines how truth is constructed in an age of Fake News, Rupert [REDACTED], and Tik Tok. This premiere performance, directed by [REDACTED][REDACTED], will ask “Where does entertainment end and [REDACTED] begin?”, “How much freedom should an artist have?”, “What are our [REDACTED] as [REDACTED]?”, and “what are our duties [REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED]?”
