AbstractHistoryArchive Description
An elderly, out-of-work and broke vaudeville performer sits huddled on a bench at St Kilda on Christmas Eve. His situation has been brought about in part by the decline in work opportunities as many 'legitimate' theatres turn to film exhibition and also because his type of act is now out of date. He begins to recall some of the people he'd worked with or seen during his career.
