AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Examines the effects of East Timorese events upon their representation in Australia, and the responses created by Australian theatrical performances: a cycle of representation and resistance. Explores ways in which two Darwin plays produced by Timorese exiles - Death at Balibo and Diablo! - worked to voice support for resistance in exile and for resistance in East Timor at times when its continuation seemed futile.
