Our Country's Good : Based on the novel 'The Playmaker' by Thomas Keneally Hardback
by Timberlake Wertenbaker
Part of the Modern Classics series
Hardback
Description
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)
