AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Metro Street is a contemporary Australian drama that charts the intersecting lives of a mother and son, a girl from the bush and a Toorak twenty-something as they angle to find their place in metropolitan Melbourne with only a streetside busker to guide the way. These five ordinary citysiders discover that to satisfy their need for the extraordinary, they must first find each other.' http://www.stateart.com.au/sota/news/default.asp?fid=3084 (Sighted 1/12/04).
