Description "A play about communications, multi-culturalism, alienation and factory conditions. Mesh is intended to raise many questions as well as hint at one possible answer, i.e. co-operation between those who feel themselves divided. Yourghos feels he's Greek and Hatijay knows she's Turkish. Halfie swears he's Australian even if his father was German and his mother was Irish. What therefore do they have
in common? How can they help each other? An industrial accident happens every two minutes in New South Wales."
