Everynight Everynight - production by Frank Theatre Company

Would it be possible to send this out to the email list? I've never sent anything out to your grand network before, but hopefully it's the kind of thing people are interested in! - -
I'd like to let you all know about the first production from the new Frank Theatre Company. They have revived Ray Mooney's Everynight Everynight - a play that tells one story of the brutality inflicted on prisoners in Pentridge Prison's H division in the 70s. 
This play is very rarely performed by professional theatre companies, in part because of its graphic violence and seriously full-on language. But if you like your theatre confronting and thought provoking, it is very definitely worth seeing. It also represents an aspect of our local history that should not be forgotten as the bluestone walls slowly morph into something more benign.

The Age have reviewed it favorably, as have other outlets.
