Court in the Act Theatre Company presents The Appleton Ladies Potato Race Appleton is a small country town being forced into the present with a recent influx of wealthy city slickers, tree changers and refugees. New GP Penny Anderson discovers that the famous Appleton Potato Race awards $1000 prize money to men, and a measly $200 to women. When Penny decides to take steps to restore gender parity and coax Appleton into the 21st century, little could she have anticipated the spiraling, hilarious culture war that would follow.
Starring 5 of Gippsland’s finest female actors THE APPLETON LADIES’ POTATO RACE is hilarious, honest and heart-warming. Inspired by real life events this modern comedy is written by Australian playwright Melanie Tait and directed by Gavin Roberts. Wits End Bar will be serving locally crafted beer, cider and wines. Doors open half an hour before the start.
