Ray Lawler's revised script (2012) of his (and Australia's) most famous play, in which two larrikin cane cutters and their women awaken to middle-age. The impact of The Doll cannot be overstated. Its success both here and abroad was quickly recognised as a defining moment in Australian theatre history.
Also available in The Doll Trilogy.
