Bus Stops on the Moon

"As cultural history, [this] book gives us a participant's-eye view of the early years of Alan Brunton and Sally Rodwell's avant-garde theatre troupe Red Mole. Formed in 1974, Red Mole performed Dadaesque cabaret, agit-prop, costume drama, street theatre, circus and puppetry, live music--and became a national sensation. They toured the country with Split Enz and travelled internationally. One of Red Mole's five founding principles was 'to escape programmed behaviour by remaining erratic.' They ticked that one off. In [this book], Martin Edmond offers ... a rich and entertaining picture of the high times and low lives of Red Mole"--Back cover.
