Treading the Boards
A Popular History of the Theatre Royal, Hobart, the Theatre Royal Light Opera Company
and Other Theatrical Developments
The Theatre Royal is 'Australia's oldest continually working theatre'.  The collation of the theatre's history, along with the development of the Theatre Royal Light Opera Company and subsequent companies, honours this achievement.

The book traces the development of the theatre itself and highlights the many theatrical icons who have performed there.  It also investigates the place of the Theatre Royal Light Opera Company and the current Tasmanian companies in the generation of the rich theatrical culture that exists in Tasmania.

Treading the Boards is a celebration of the Theatre Royal and its place in the theatrical history of Australia.
