Adaptations

y separately published work icon Don Juan Nick Enright , Nick Enright (translator), 1983 (Manuscript version)x401371 Z1131119 1983 single work drama humour

A translation and adaptation of Moliere's Don Juan, by Australian playwright Nick Enright.
Don Juan Robert Jarman , 2013 single work drama

'Sex is his lifeblood, and his lips drip kisses. Pursuit, seduction and betrayal are his standard operating procedure. Now this archetypal story gets given a modern and very local spin by Robert Jarman. As a director/designer Robert has staged many of Tasmania’s most memorable and beautiful productions of the last two decades. His take on Don Juan is thoughtful, sexy, funny, gorgeous and philosophical. It’s about sex and deception and hypocrisy and, of course, it’s a comedy.'
