1 2 Which Way Hugh Watson , 2004 single work drama 'Which Way incorporates drama, dance and music in a compelling piece of theatre that explores the minds of three characters who are waiting for change. However they eventually realise that if change is to occur they must initiate it! Which Way follows their journey as they negotiate a world that teaches them to consume or be consumed. Not knowing which way to turn they turn to each other.' http://www.brisbanepowerhouse.org/ (Sighted 13/08/04)
