Description Takes an element of NZ social history, the 1955 'jukebox murder', and weaves an intriguing inter-generational story around the fictional Rosie, the widgie at the heart of the killing. For sixty years, Rosie's secrets and guilt reverberate down the generations in a haunting, humorous, time-blended journey. Repetition reigns, a consequence sparked by the death of two bodgies: one murdered and the other hanged for the crime.
