'With a large cast aged from 5 to 50 years, this play recalls the trials and joys, the pathos and comedy of an era when we still had rationing, kids played backyard cricket all summer, New Australians from Europe arrived on migrant ships at Fremantle, rock and roll was born, young men went on national service and parents worried about the polio epidemic and communist spies. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to celebrate the lives of people who undoubtedly helped shape Perth in ways we would otherwise no nothing about. Experience their stories and memories, in these very limited performances.' (Production summary)
