We are nearing a quarter of the way through the 21st century, but perennial questioning of the great Australian play remains.

A few plays missed out by a tiny margin. Honourable mentions go to 37 by Nathan Maynard, Do Not Go Gentle by Patricia Cornelius, Holding the Man by Tommy Murphy and Triple X by Glace Chase.
