THE GALLERY GAMBLE a comedy by Pauline Hosking. In outback Tullaroop, the youthful Michael Beverage attempts to bring art to the bush.

A warm, witty and very pacey show, this is outback Australia without the "Dad and Dave" cliche´s. Pauline's plays have been performed by Melbourne Writer's Theatre, Australian National Playwrights' Centre, La Mama, and various amateur theatre groups. 90 min., 2 sets, large mixed cast, mixed ages. $45.00 + GST Quantity or
