SAVAGES
The dark side of mateship.
Multi award-winning playwright Patricia Cornelius has created a dynamic new Australian play - Savages - which takes a tough look at masculinity and misogyny amongst a pack of ordinary young men.
Premiering at fortyfivedownstairs, Savages is a cautionary tale about a group of men who don’t really know themselves or what they can become.
Four friends embark on the holiday of a life time – but their excitement is soured by anger, bitterness and the disappointment of their own lives… as the pack forms, the dark side of mateship takes over.
With Savages, Patricia Cornelius frankly confronts the realities and nuances of contemporary life with engaging characters and poetic text.

REVIEW: SAVAGES A REMARKABLE PIECE OF THEATRE
CHRIS BOYD, THE AUSTRALIAN, 19 AUGUST 2013
"Savages isn't just a remarkable piece of writing, it's a powerful piece of theatre at every level."
INTERVIEW: PATRICIA CORNELIUS ON SAVAGES
ANDREW FUHRMANN, TIMEOUT MELBOURNE, 14 JUNE 2013
"Few contemporary playwrights can frame a provocation like multi-award-winning playwright Patricia Cornelius. Her latest work, Savages, debuting in August at Melbourne's fortyfivedownstairs, is a furious study in male wretchedness."
REVIEW: PATRICIA CORNELIUS’ SAVAGES
KIM EDWARDS, THEATRE PRESS, 19 AUGUST 2013
"At once a funny, sad, pitiful, scary and altogether realistic portrayal of modern masculinity – and the inherent “savage†misogyny that sometimes goes with it – in all its glory."
