Melbourne Stories: Three Plays

Three Plays: Who's Afraid of the Working Class; Polly Blue; Features of Blown Youth

Melbourne at the end of the twentieth century...modern economic miracle or a society imploding with savage politics and despair? The characters in these plays have been crushed, frustrated, isolated, as well as battered by the grim consumerism of the 1990s. But they are survivors, resilient to the end. This collection presents a gritty portrayal of real life in an urban wasteland.
