Adam Cass is a writer from Australia. Most known as a playwright, Cass has written more than fifty plays, which have been produced locally and internationally.
His best-known work is ‘I Love You, Bro’ (published by Play Lab Theatre), which has been translated into several languages and performed throughout the world. Cass wrote the non-fiction, ‘La Mama’ celebrating the first fifty years of Melbourne’s iconic theatre (published by Melbourne University Press (MUP) in 2017).
Cass has performed in, directed, designed, or produced hundreds of plays, and his day job for many years has been to design La Mama Theatre’s marketing materials.
After La Mama discovered in early 2024 that a bulk of its funding was about to be lost (along with his job), Cass decided to transition into full-time writing and dad duties. He has completed and is currently seeking representation for his first novel, ‘The Fallow Field,’ and he has turned his hand to short story writing.
Cass lives with his partner and two very young sons in a small country town just outside Melbourne.
