"Stroke" - award-winning farce
Author: Mark Lucas

Mark Lucas's picture

"Stroke", an outstanding one-act play for 3 females & 1 male, garnered 27 awards on the South-East Queensland Drama Festival circuit in 2006. This is a high-powered, rip-roaring farce that centres on two inept bank robbers (Stacey & Sandra) who find themselves holed up in a seedy motel room inhabited by Myron & his wife Adele.
