Production

Kenneth Cook was an opponent to the Vietnam War.[2] Cook later said it, and other works of his like Stockade and The Wine of God's Anger arose "out of a tremendous sort of emotional reaction against particular circumstances. In that case, it was the Vietnam War, totally. And you do get carried away at the time, but when the emotion is gone... they seem a bit over-blown."[3]

Reception

The Sun Herald called it "a tight little drama".[4] The Age called it "topical, punchy and close to the bone... a rare play that dealt with a real life issue."[5]
