When Penny Anderson, the town’s new GP, returns to her childhood home of Appleton, she’s shocked to find the local potato race prize still sits at $1000 for men and just $200 for women. Determined to change this outdated tradition, she sets out on a mission to even the playing field. But not everyone is on board, especially the no-nonsense Bev, who sees Penny as another city slicker disrupting country ways.

Director Mark Constable presents this hilarious and uplifting production featuring a talented cast of five women, the play takes a sharp yet affectionate look at small-town life, change, and the fight for equality.

This multi award-winning cast includes international theatre actors and Macedon Ranges locals Sophie Cleary & Sharni Page, along with the much loved and renowned Shayne Francis, Sheila Kumar and Australian industry legend, Margot Knight.
