Australian writer James Elazzi has garnered acclaim for his frank and funny plays that dramatise the lives of Lebanese Australians. He has been nominated for a slew of awards in his young career, including this year's Martin-Lysicrates Prize. His sixth play, Karim, is coming to Riverside's National Theatre of Parramatta.
