Playwright David Atfield.
IN a welcome piece of news for Canberra playwriting, David Atfield has been selected to be in residence at Canberra Theatre Centre during August, working on his new play, “Chiaroscuro” as part of the theatre’s New Works program.
“Chiaroscuro” will follow the story of notorious Italian artist Caravaggio as he paints a masterpiece from his studio in late-renaissance Italy, exploring themes of religion, queerness and the life of an artist.
Atfield, a winner of three Canberra Critics’ Circle Awards, is one of Canberra’s most respected directors and playwrights.
