A translation and adaptation of Moliere's Don Juan, by Australian playwright Nick Enright.
'Sex is his lifeblood, and his lips drip kisses. Pursuit, seduction and betrayal are his standard operating procedure. Now this archetypal story gets given a modern and very local spin by Robert Jarman. As a director/designer Robert has staged many of Tasmania’s most memorable and beautiful productions of the last two decades. His take on Don Juan is thoughtful, sexy, funny, gorgeous and philosophical. It’s about sex and deception and hypocrisy and, of course, it’s a comedy.'

Dom Juan ou le Festin de pierre is included in AustLit because of Australian-written adaptations.
The title became popularised as Don Juan (rather than Dom) in the seventeenth century.
