by arrangement with LMCM on behalf of Melanie Tait.
When Penny returns to the small country town of her childhood just in time for the Appleton Show and its famous potato race, she discovers the winning man's prize is $1,000 and the winning woman's prize is a measly $200. When Penny decides to take steps to restore gender parity and coax Appleton into the 21st century, little could she have anticipated the spiralling, hilarious culture war that would follow.
Inspired by true events, Melanie Tait's affectionate Australian comedy is an effervescent and big-hearted tale about women taking action, and showing the world there's more than one way to win a race.
