Dorothy Hewett's Drama, Memory and Australian Theatre

This book narrates the lives of Dorothy Hewett's plays. By exploring their production in and across time, it shows distortions in the memory of her drama, and ways to re-imagine them. Their production also uncovers preoccupations in Australian Theatre.
