Description
“Parker took a risk when he peppered the text with references to real people. Helen Clark, Annette King, Michael Fay and Mike Moore are but a few of the off-stage presences haunting the action. But the risk pays off. The issues Parker explores are real ones; the events around which these issues cohere actually happened.”
– Elspeth Sandys, New Zealand Listener
This playscript includes Dean’s typically forthright introduction, setting the scene and revealing much about how the playwright works. Also included is the short story that became Act One.
