Jimmy: Yeah and I thought we was just kickin a bit of pig skin around.
Mount Barkers most famous sons, Jim and Phil Krakouer took the Australian football world by storm in the early 1980s. Their unique and anarchic brand of football, dubbed black magic, captured the imagination of the nation. This is the story of the challenges they faced in their rise to the top of their game; their skill, daring and resilience both on and off the sporting field, and the controversy and adversity that has met them throughout their lives.
deckchair is delighted to present the world premiere of this compelling and highly entertaining new play by one of Western Australias most gifted contemporary playwrights, Reg Cribb.
