| Description |
At last count some 927,700 Australians were out of work. Diving for Pearls is the story
of one of them. It's just the play for the rust belt. Katherine Thomson's potent play is a heroic proletarian howl for justice in the workforce. Set in an industrial coastal town in contemporary Australia. |
