A Bit of Rough
13 April 1978 Playbox Theatre
Hoopla Theatre Foundation,
Theatre - Spoken Word
Julie (Ros Horin) is a thirty-something middle-class woman who leaves her husband to shack up Roy (William Zappa), a 20-year-old East End tough. The play confronts rape from a feminist perspective, the double standards inherent in heterosexual relationships, and shows the intertwining of class and sexuality.
