Synopsis
A relish for life pitted against mortality is the impulse behind The Golden Oldies, a satirical play about death and filial duty and one of Hewett's most densely written works (2 acts, 2 women, effigies).
The second, written for radio, centres on Susannah's love for an abalone fisherman (1 act, 6 men, 2 women).
