Foreskins Lament by Greg McGee New Zealand playscript Victoria Press

Cat from Ohariu

Born in Oamaru before Steampunk became a thing, Greg McGee played rugby all the way up to being an All-Black Trailist in 1972-1973.

Born in Oamaru before Steampunk became a thing, Greg McGee played rugby all the way up to being an All-Black Trailist in 1972-1973.
This again is another snapshot of a slice of NZ society. A society before the Springbok tour and the politics of the 1980's. It is a snap shot of the dark and light rural underbelly of NZ.
This is a play about rural identity and where the pakeha stand.
How do you be part of a team with an obvious goal and still be yourself? How do you handle a mob? There is an echo for the modern reader.
This is my old university study book, with notes from 1983.
The book is from a smoke-free, pet-free home and I can post anywhere.
This book is good for drama historians, academics and people who'd just like a copy to read. Happy to post with negotiation.
