Description Rusden Drama and VCA Music senior students collaborated to create a tribute to the radio/cabaret entertainments of the 1930's. "It is a unique achievement as cutbacks in funding have recently made it impossible for the Rusden Drama Department to mount productions of this scale. It has happened because the students raised their own financial backing and have utilised the encouraging support of community centres, arts councils, education departments and private businesses in North-eastern Victoria".
