1 The Last Shot Troy Russell , Troy Russell (composer), 2021 single work musical theatre

'Based on true events, The Last Shot by Troy Russell is an intimate musical tale of romance, heartbreak and tragedy in colonial times. Star-crossed lovers Jimmy and Florrie take flight through Gomeroi Country, seeking refuge with strangers.

'One night, after singing and dancing at the local camp, a foreboding event catapults them into turmoil. Forced to make an escape, Jimmy and Florrie set off into the night followed by a landowner in pursuit of revenge. Drawing on a range of musical genres, and accompanied by archival imagery, The Last Shot is a story of romance and chaos, pulling on your heartstrings and lifting your spirits.'
