The project addresses the question of Patrick White, a canonical but contentious novelist, whose contribution to Australian theatrical modernism is under-recognised. This new analysis of White that focuses on his drama and the numerous theatrical performances of his plays from 1961 to 2012 aims to develop a significant new narrative for Australian theatre that maps the journey from modern drama to contemporary performance. Drawing on the considerable archive of reviews, photographs and annotated scripts, this study of White’s theatre aims to re-assess the impact of Patrick White on Australian modernism and reposition his work within a twenty-first century context of reception.

该项目解决了帕特里克·怀特的问题，他是一位权威但有争议的小说家，他对澳大利亚戏剧现代主义的贡献被低估了。这本对怀特的新分析聚焦于他的戏剧和1961年至2012年期间他的戏剧的众多戏剧表演，旨在为澳大利亚戏剧发展一种重要的新叙事，描绘从现代戏剧到当代表演的旅程。利用大量的评论、照片和注释脚本的档案，这项对怀特戏剧的研究旨在重新评估帕特里克·怀特对澳大利亚现代主义的影响，并在21世纪的接受背景下重新定位他的作品。
