The Play: Visions
The Playwright: Louis Nowra
The Playwright: Louis Nowra Born 1950 in Melbourne Writer of many plays and films Famous for Cosi, Black and White, Radiance
The Playwright: Louis Nowra For research I have read Louis Nowras memoir, Shooting the Moon. This book provides some interesting insights into his childhood, his political leanings and how that impacts his choices as a writer.
The Play: Visions Set in Paraguay during the 1860s - the War of the Triple Alliance, which was the bloodiest conflict in Latin American history. The megalomaniac President Lopez has married Madame Lynch, a Parisian courtesan. His ignorance and her egotism together bring ruin on the country and themselves. Against this violent background of bungled diplomacy, death and superstition, is set an allegory of conflicting values, where visions of the civilised arts of peace sacrifice a nation to its own barbarity.
The Play: Visions Nowra questions the qualities of humanity and civility, and what humans make a priority in a time of crisis. He satirically represents the characters ignorance and skewed views of realities, whilst they cling to the trappings of a crumbling world.
The Play: Visions Key Themes Power Privilege Politics Violence Appearance vs Reality Revolution
Research Paraguay War 1864-1870 Causes: President Lopez being aggressive or the after-effects of British Colonialism
