Can a play be arrogant?

The play itself can not be arrogant, since that word refers to a character trait, and a play is an inanimate object. But the person who wrote it (the playwright) can be considered arrogant. Or we could say the dialogue in the play can shows arrogance; or, more accurately, we can say that some of the characters act in an arrogant way.
