AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Meet The Candidates follows three different candidates (Labor, Liberal and Independent) as they tussle over a marginal seat in a state election. The money, the manoeuvering, the mud-slinging, and of course the men and women who make it all happen are exposed, as a political machine in full-swing suffers from a little too much lubrication over a series of events at pubs and clubs in the suburban heartland.' http://www.darlinghursttheatre.com/3.html (Sighted 22/06/05)
