Mr Bailey’s Minder by Debra Oswald
A tough, funny and big-hearted play
Abusive, cantankerous and burned out by booze, Leo Bailey is one of Australia’s national treasures. A gifted painter and chronic alcoholic, he can no longer take care of himself. His resentful daughter, Margo, has been through a succession of minders, until Therese comes along, fresh out of jail and determined to make a go of her limited options.
It’s about shame and judgement, about who deserves to be loved and forgiven. It looks at how people exploit each other and where they find the beauty; and the qualities of transcendence, letting go and forgiveness.
The Mount Players presents Mr Bailey’s Minder by Debra Oswald a Dramatic Comedy at the Mountview Theatre. A tough, funny and big-hearted play.
