Joanna Murray-Smith and Daniel Keene: Class Oppositions examines two significant Australian playwrights who currently make up over 50% of Australian theatre in the international market. Murray-Smith has found her way to Broadway and The West End. Keene has garnered much admiration in translation across Europe. She dissects an Australian world of money and education. He looks at an Australia where people have very little or nothing. Accompanied by a wide theatrical history of Australia, Carroll discovers why two playwrights of the same generation and the same city work in opposition yet find commercial and critical favour elsewhere like very few Australian playwrights before them.
