1 Lily Can't Sleep Bridget Boyle , Liz Skitch , 2007 single work drama children's humour

'This comic drama explores concepts of change and dealing with anxiety in a light-hearted way, through the eyes of a child. The story unfolds as night falls and Lily, whose family has just moved house, tries to go to sleep. With the challenges of change, including being in a new house, in a new room and starting at a new school, Lily has lots on her mind. It's no wonder she can't get to sleep. Her mum tells her to count sheep, but what good is that when one of them is running amok in her room.' Source: /www.qpac.com.au (Sighted 11/11/2007).
1 1 y separately published work icon The Clown From Snowy River Bridget Boyle , Liz Skitch , 2006 Brisbane : Playlab , 2008 Z1518095 2006 single work drama humour young adult

'The Swagman, inspired by his beloved Banjo Paterson, sets out to stage the history of Australia. However, his troupe of clowns have ideas of their own. Together they attempt to stage all of the defining chapters in Australian history—from Gallipoli to the Sydney Olympics, and from Ned Kelly to Kylie Minogue.

'The Clown from Snowy River asks the big questions: What is the Australian identity? What historical events define who we are? And what on earth is a movement at the station?'
