The Kelly Gang (Majeroni play)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kelly Gang is a 1904 Australian play about Ned Kelly by Mario Majeroni.[1][2]
The play heavily borrowed from the 1896 play The Kelly Gang. Unlike many early Kelly plays a copy of it survives.[3]
The Queenslander said "the best traditions of melodrama were observed, and as far as possible both vice and virtue met with the time-honoured rewards. As a matter of course, there has been no attempt made to adhere rigidly to the facts of history, and a wealth of original incident is interwoven with the story, with the result that sensationalism of the most moving type has been achieved."[4]
