While Australian terror suspect David Hicks remains in Guantanamo Bay, former detainee Mamdouh Habib has become the subject of a new drama-cum-documentary, The Habib Show, which is being staged at the Theatreworks in St Kilda.
According to a review, the performance is meant to examine how in contemporary society we are complicit in the mistreatment of those accused of being involved with terrorists. However it fails to deliver on this, instead becoming an outlet for the writer's contempt of politicians. Of course the irony is that the writer has fallen into the same hole as politicians who cannot see the forest for the trees.
