Description |
"This lively modern classic of the Australian stage was written for National Institute of Dramatic Art students in 1970...Canadian-born, King O'Malley was a cut-rate Caesar and a great Federation politician, a man of conscience and a social reformer...O'Malley locked horns with Prime Minister Billy Hughes and opposed conscription and retired without money or power to Melbourne and thence to Hell." |
