Act of Violence is a 1959 television play broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. It was based on a play by Australian writer Iain MacCormick which had previously been broadcast in Britain in 1956. This was typical of Australian television at the time - most locally produced drama consisted of adaptations of overseas stories.[5]

Cast

Production

It was the third of MacCormick's plays to be adapted by the ABC, the others being The Small Victory and The Sound of Thunder.[6]

An advertisement at the time said the production "was in line with ABC policy, followed since the establishment of television, regularly to present fine plays with Australian casts." The ad also claimed it was the ABC's 54th live TV drama.[7]
