Right Dishonourable

"Delivers the complex frisson that musical theatre strives for."
​Michael Gilchrist, Theatreview

An outlandishly dystopian metropolis calls a snap election after a sex scandal forces the Prime Minister to step down. Contending for the top spot are a jaded Liberal idealist, an inexperienced Conservative with a domineering wife and a man with a gumboot on his head. This political satire poked fun at left and right wings alike and lampooned the democratic process itself.

Highly Commended in the 2013 Playwrights b4 25 competition.
