520 |a Based on the testimony of dozens of women from Parramatta Girls Training School, Parramatta Girls is a dramatisation of the experiences of eight inmates and their reunion forty years later. Interspersed with songand storytelling, this is a tribute to mischief and humour in the face ofhardship and inequality. Commissioned by Outback Theatre in Hay, fyes to the Floor chronicles the experience of girls sent from Parramatta Girls Home to the Hay Girls Home for even more brutal, punitive treatment. Written to be played by young adults, this moving work emphasises the childlike vulnerability of the inmates in a world where they must find connection with each other in order to to survive. Artfully woven with movement, chorus work and poetry, it is a compelling companion work to Parramatta Girls.
