Australian Gay and Lesbian Plays by Bruce Parr

Australian Gay and Lesbian Plays

Bruce Parr

This collection of Australian plays is a first: it is a celebration of homosexuality and its diversity in Australian theatre. It provokes a rethinking of the nature of gay and lesbian drama, and ranges from established works in the Australian repertoire to plays first seen in Mardi Gras festivals (various cast).

This collection is a celebration of homosexuality and its diversity in Australian theatre. The plays span two decades of playwriting and include: Is That You Nancy? by Sandra Shotlander; The Gay Divorcee by Margaret Fischer; What Do They Call Me? By Eva Johnson; Pinball by Alison Lyssa; Mates by Peter Kenna; Furious by Michael Gow; A Manual of Trench Warfare by Clem Gorman; and Blood and Honour by Alex Harding.20
