MORNING SACRIFICE
BY: Dymphna Cusack
DIRECTED BY: Pearl Nunn
Set in the staff room of an all-girl school, Morning Sacrifice interrogates the stifling sexual morality of post-War Australia. The all-female cast are divided by the conflict between a waning Victorian sensibility and the feminist freedoms of the coming age. Playwright Dymphna Cusack is said to have written this work as a witty revenge on the department of Education of the 1930s. A mixture of conservatives and progressives, play office games and struggle for favouritism while an unnoticed tragedy unfolds around them.
