| Description |
"Because" focuses on poet James McAuley's attempt to undermine modern poetry when he invents the nonsensical poems by "Ern Malley". The play traces the effect that the resulting expose has on those individuals who are also duped, as well as raising questions about the nature of poetic inspiration. |
