''Nowra has written a terrific play about theatre, madness, illusion, sanity, life: it''s a big, splendidly Australian epic.'' - Frank Gauntlett, Telegraph Mirror Set in 1971, Cosi is Louis Nowra''s second semi-autobiographical play. Lewis has recently left university and takes up a job in a mental institution directing Mozart''s Cosi Fan Tutte.
Lewis, the non-participant, becomes emotionally involved with his actors'' lives as his operatic production lurches forward and anti-Vietnam protests take place in the streets outside. ''Nowra''s generous humour offers up a world of the most extraordinary, ordinary people; and a hilarious situation comedy to boot...
[but there are] hints of a darkness that lies beyond the light: the real world.'' - Angela Bennie, Sydney Morning Herald
