Inspired by the lives of two of Australia’s most influential playwrights of the 1970s, Jim McNeil and Peter Kenna, Mongrels addresses the difficulties and complexities of the creative artist in life and art. Universally praised following its first Sydney production, Bob Evans (Theatre Critic for the Sydney Morning Herald) wrote that ‘Mongrels, like Michael Gow’s Furious, attempts to dissect and expose the tissues that connect art and life; the points of contact between self and creation, actuality and fiction.’
