3 musicians. A Country and Western Musical. "CHOOK" FOWLER, former C & W singer, is now a middle aged lost soul, caught between the Bushman/Digger mythology of his father, and the 'go for it', self-promotional 1980s model Australian represented by his daughter. The family's conflict is in part explained by each particular generation's attitude to "the land". CHOOK is forced to reconcile a past he believes he has wasted, with his lack of a future when the family returns to Tamworth for the annual Country Music Festival. Published Currency Press 1992
