Mr Bailey’s Minder is the fictional story of Leo Bailey, one of Australia’s greatest living artists who battles to survive the effects of alcohol, cynicism and self-loathing. His resentful daughter Margo, one of his many children, is prepared to help, but she does so at arm’s length. Leo has been through a succession of minders who could not stand Leo’s vicious tongue and wild antics. But along comes Therese, down to her last job and determined to make a go of it. A funny and deeply moving play about friendship, ego, art and the secret longing for a better life.
