1 4 The Greater Plague Nic Dorward , 2005 single work drama 'The Greater Plague follows the story of a woman, heavily pregnant who has been placed under 'house-arrest' for 40 days. The plague houses were intended by authorities to keep the plague contained. She is joined by two French girls, sisters Letisse and Edith, who stumble upon the plague-infested house by accident. They are consequently required to wait out the decontamination process regardless of whether or not they are infected. Their only contact with the outside world is through a plague-nurse sporting the traditional plague masks doctors wore to protect themselves against infection. The girls are also visited by Mr. Buckingham, the body-bearer with a penchant for necrophilia.' http://www.theprogram.net.au/reviewsSub.asp?id=2862&state=1 Source: (Sighted 14/09/2005)
