Synopsis

This is a large play for a large cast centring around a group of young people in their late teens growing up in a country town.

It covers the next couple of years in their lives as each endeavours to make their own way in the world.

Some manage to follow their dreams, others fall by the wayside, but the play never loses its sense of optimism and life affirmation.

The world of the play moves from the dustbowl of the rodeo circuit to the Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras and incorporates a number of issues important in young lives: being true to oneself; exploring one's sexuality; dealing with parental pressures; sibling rivalry; competitive pressures of success and failure; staying in a country town or going 'where the money is'.
