Melodrama in Mary Street - History Talk
About
What happens when a marriage doesn’t go so well?In the late 19th century, it culminated in a St Kilda-centred scandal involving an attempted murder; Essendon footballers ingesting dodgy supplements; a Boer War spy drama; plus, lots of other disgraceful gossip.
All will be revealed by Liz Kelly, St Kilda Historical Society researcher and story-teller extraordinaire.
Tickets $10
Liz Kelly is a self-taught history aficionado, adept at digging into historical archives to answer member and public queries. She also delves into the family histories (and scandals) of people who shaped the multi- textured history of St Kilda, from bush-rangers to bohemians, and wealthy entrepreneurs - and turns them into fascinating tales.
