SEXUAL MISCONDUCT OF THE MIDDLE CLASSES

(ASSISTANT DIRECTOR)

From 6th of March 2021

Melbourne Theatre Company, Southbank Theatre

Jon is a prize-winning novelist who wants more out of life. His third marriage is going about as well as his first two, and he’s stuck at university teaching creative writing to lazy undergraduates. He’s a good teacher, but there’s really only one student worth his time. Annie is clever, imaginative, and a huge fan of his work. One afternoon, Jon catches himself admiring Annie in her red coat, and very soon it feels like their affair was destined from the start. But when the embers have cooled and the affair is over, will he be able to control their narrative?
