Event description
In the small country town of Appleton, the annual show includes carrying large sacks of potatoes round a racetrack. The winner of the men’s race gets $1000, while the winner of the women’s race wins a paltry $200. New doctor and returning resident Penny Anderson sees this as completely unfair and sets out to right the wrong.
The Appleton Ladies' Potato Race is a Mackay Festival of Arts Fringe Event.
