Description Set in the late 60's, Travelling North by David Williamson sees Frank and Frances decide to desert their former lives and responsibilities in Melbourne for the tropics of Queensland. It is a love story that also looks at the issues of family, the topic of mortality, and the sheer frustrations of getting older. The play is full of warmth and humour.

Based on the true story of his mother-in-law finding new love in later life, this affectionate play is one of Williamson's best and most resonant.
