Mergers and Accusations by Eleanor Wong


Nine of us gathered this afternoon to talk about Eleanor Wong's Mergers and Accusations. Closing the session was the playwright herself.

Up next for Open Roads is our last session of the year. On Sat, 27 Nov, 2pm - 4pm, Substation Classroom 1, we'll be looking at Natalie Hennedige's Nothing which won the Life! Theatre Award for Best Play in 2008 when it was staged by Hennedige's company, Cake Theatrical Productions.

Hennedige's unique imagination and theatrical sensibility manifests itself powerfully in this meditation on life and death and this is an opportunity not only to catch video clips of the 2007 production but also to talk to Hennedige who will be our special guest for the afternoon.

A review of the play is available here:

To register for the session, email us at admin@inkpotreviews.com. The fee is $5 which you can pay on the day itself.


Note: The play is not available in the form of a published script but Hennedige has kindly given us permission to email copies of the script to participants in advance of the meeting.

  1. Hi, was just wondering if you'll be doing summaries of the sessions. I haven't been able to make it for most of them, but it'll be interesting to know some of the discussions.

  2. I'm afraid we don't document the discussions but that's something we'll definitely consider if Open Roads continues in 2011.

    Here's hoping you can join us for our last session on 27 Nov.
