Description This production was performed at Mudgee Town Hall as part of a benefit to raise money for Mudgee Hospital. The cast travelled from Sydney to Mudgee for the performance. A review in the Mudgee Guardian said that "the drama, though well staged, did not appeal to the audience to any very great degree – it was too much out of the ordinary, too pseudo-philosophical." The show was a double bill with a production of To Oblige Benson.
