Annotation. Fear, violence and race prejudice are themes with which we are all sadly familiar. Bill Reed's three plays-on-a-theme, based on the life and times of Truganinni, the supposed last Tasmanian Aborigines so socially visible, develop these themes based on the historical dissemination, dispossession and final degradation of the Tasmanian original people.Bill Reed combines his talent for dramatisation with a professional's creative approach to modern theatre. The three plays offer very different acting and directing possibilities:; the first is a mime against a background of rhythmic verse; the second is a farce-melodrama; and the third is a high tragedy. The plays can be presented (as they were in their premier production at the Union Theatre of the University of Melbourne) as a consecutive trilogy or each can be produced as an independent one-act play.In the years following 'Truganinni's premiere, the play has grown in stature and has been produced, mainly as a whole, around many professional and amateur stage companies.
