BLOOD ON THE WATTLE
About
The environment, sex and politics, political parties, country life and the Ukraine War. Contemporary Australia is put under the spotlight. The show has a real cliffhanger, and two characters and two pasts come into collision.The play becomes a cathartic outburst of issues, with a stinger that glimpses a way forward. The story is a roller coaster with bite, the characters are too real, and their values are held to account. Entertaining whatever your preferred politics. (Adult themes)With Vincent Melton (Karl Matters) Annishka Q (Vanya Kulish) Tonia Davis (Louise Patterson) and Tisha Kelemen (Narrator/singer)
Written by Geoffrey Sykes
"A worthy political play. Seismic. Tour de force." (Sydney Arts Guide)
