Australia 1789. A young married lieutenant is directing rehearsals
of the first play ever to be staged in that country. With only two
copies of the text, a cast of convicts, and one leading lady who
may be about to be hanged, conditions are hardly ideal. . .
"Wertenbaker has searched history and found in it a humanistic
lesson for hard modern times: rough, sombre, undogmatic and warm"
(Sunday Times); "Highly theatrical, often funny and at times dark
and disturbing, it sets an infant civilization on the stage with
clarity, economy and insight" (Charles Spencer, Daily Telegraph)
