The Bill of Divorcement at Albert Hall described
A Canberra audience witnessed a notable Arte and Literature Society presentation of The Bill of Divorcement at the Albert Hall on Saturday night. The cast, led by Sydney Bundey and Dr L W Nott, delivered strong performances despite a melodramatic premise. A three year old in Ryde died after choking on pod peas, with details linking to a 1933 case in Fairfield Home, England. The drama raises questions on the morality of divorce, following Margaret Fairfield’s fraught arc from wartime marriage to separation and a possible remarriage with Gray Meredith, amid intense, emotional scenes and critical commentary on societal views.
