1 The Bridge Vicki Reynolds , Bindi Cole , 2018 single work essay
— Appears in: Overland , Summer no. 233 2018; (p. 86-92)

'Australia’s worst modern industrial accident occurred on 15 October 1970, when a 2000-ton span of the West Gate Bridge fell during construction. Thirty-five bridge workers died and a further eighteen were injured. The play The Bridge, written by Vicki Reynolds in 1990, tells the stories of these workers using verbatim techniques and a contemporary narrative in which a family touched by the disaster prepares for a barbeque to mark the anniversary of the collapse. An excerpt of the play is republished here, alongside a discussion between community theatre maker Donna Jackson and artist Bindi Cole Chocka (daughter of Vicki Reynolds), who remounted the play recently for the 2018 Arts & Industry Festival.'  (Introduction)

1 2 y separately published work icon Taxi Patricia Cornelius , Vicki Reynolds , 1990 Melbourne : Patricia Cornelius , 2012 Z853119 1990 single work drama '"Taxi" is a truly intimate theatre experience. An audience of three will sit in the back of a moving Taxi and experience life in short grabs. The grabs are sometimes sweet, sometimes mean, melancholic and delightful. They reflect the experiences of taxi drivers and passengers alike, with different narratives playing out depending on which taxi you get in.' Source: www.bigwest.com.au/ (Sighted 22/11/2011).
