Description For the first time in almost twenty years Ray Lawler's iconic Australian drama will grace the Dunstan Playhouse stage. Crackling with earthy humour, the play evokes the sense of possibility and simple optimism in post-World War II Australia. But it is its universal story of love, heartache and hope that makes "The Doll" one of the theatrical canon's most moving explorations of the fading of youth and dreams.
