  • Résumé

  • This is a self-contained story-arc over eight chapters from the pages of Steele Rudd's book "Back At Our Selection". The Synopsis: After being a shy bachelor for a number of years, Dave (Dad Rudd's second eldest son) has finally got married. To a "Girl from Town" named "Lily White". When she first arrives at "Ruddville", she and Dave's sister Sarah get on wonderfully. But after some months, friction between the two young woman sets in, and Dave and Lily seek to have a separate house of their own on the extensive Rudd property. But Dad, though now a prosperous farmer, started out with his wife and children in a two-room settler's slab-hut, and has a notion ... exacerbated by tightfistedness ... that all young folk should start out their married life like that and work their way up. So he finds, demolishes, carts, and re-erects a forty-year-old abandoned shack for his son and daughter-in-law. They acquiesce to accepting it, and in time even become rather contented there. But soon, Dave's mother-in-law arrives for a visit, and cranky old Dad Rudd finally meets his nemesis. - Summary by Son of the ExilesCast list:Dad Rudd, Australian farmer - Patriarch of the Rudd clan: Son of the ExilesMother Rudd, wife of Dad Rudd: TJ BurnsDave Rudd, son of Dad Rudd: Tomas PeterSarah Rudd, daughter of Dad Rudd: Linda Olsen FitakLily White, newly married to Dave: Devorah AllenLily’s Mother - Dave's mother-in-law: SoniaJoe Rudd, son of Dad Rudd: NemoBill Rudd, son of Dad Rudd: FoonBarty Rudd, son of Dad Rudd: Peter MusgroveJimmy Regan - Neighbour to the Rudds: ToddHWYoung Regan - Neighbour to the Rudds: Zoe TrangWillie Wiley - Orphan boy adopted by one of Dad's neighbours: FoonMary Murphy - Daughter of one of Dad's neighbours: Leanne YauThe Parson: Larry WilsonMrs Walker: Sandra SchmitBuilding Contractor: Larry WilsonNarrator: Beth ThomasThis project was finished during the March Challenge with the precious help of the following six volunteer editors (thank you all) :BhavyaCampbell SchelpChuck WilliamsonJaySlinnyMaria Kasper
