Description "A Property of the Clan deals with violence within our community and specifically between males and females. When a young girl was killed within the Hunter some years ago it was obvious that the act had a very strong effect on those directly involved and the wider community. Using that incident as a starting point it was decided to write a play that looked at the psychological responses of young people and others to such an act and the forces that bring about such an act."
