A really solid Aussie play. Good conflict - strict dad, romantic daughter, wild idealist bloke who wants to create a utopia. A lot of exciting action happens off stage - idealist is shot, an escape goes badly. But it works as a whole.
There's subplots that could be ejected - visiting soldiers. The subplot about the servants in love is effective and dove tails.
This should have been filmed by the ABC.
