Summer of the Seventeenth Doll

Blurb

Summer of the Seventeenth Doll is a pioneering Australian play written by Ray Lawler and first performed at the Union Theatre in Melbourne, Australia, on 28 November 1955. The play is unanimously considered by scholars of literature to be the most historically significant in Australian theatre history, indeed a "turning point", openly and authentically portraying distinctly Australian life and characters. It was one of the first truly naturalistic "Australian" theatre productions.
It was originally published by Angus & Robertson, before moving to Fontana Press and then Currency Press
