| Description |
A completely reworked version of the 1993 Victorian Premier's Literary Awards short-listee. Inspired by the alternative history stories of the American science fiction writer Howard Waldrop.
The play celebrates the Australia-USA relationship and how nice it is to play Ophelia to America's Hamlet. It also explains the true story behind the murderous animosity directed at Senator Elvis Presley by the ex-U.S. Army (and now on thr run) Colonel Walter E Kurtz. |
