Description …the first considerable New Zealand play written about the country, its people, and their attitudes by a New Zealander: and whether they like it or not, for New Zealanders. … Action there is none, unless a reported accidental death, a great many violent words, and a few lethal shots 'off' can be considered so. The movement lies in the various shiftings and agonies of the characters….
