Brisbane Powerhouse & Creative Regions presents

Tales of the Underground - Scratch Series

Creative Regions (REGIONAL QLD, AUS)

Sat 18 - Sat 25 Feb 2012

Three short plays about mining by Angela Betzien, Victoria Carless and Rod Ainsworth.

Tales of the Underground explores the social impacts of mining through the experiences of three playwrights-in-residence in the ex-boom towns of Mount Morgan, Mount Perry and Cracow.
 
Given only three weeks, the playwrights uncovered the stories that shaped the history of these communities – tales of vision, dedication, sacrifice and madness – and examined what can be learned from these mining towns of the past.
 
Join us for the inaugural public reading of this collection of short plays developed with the help of nationally recognised dramaturg, Peter Matheson.

Duration: 45min play readings

Suitable for people aged 15 years and over.
