Summer of the Seventeenth Doll is an Australian play by Ray Lawler first performed in 1955.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })For sixteen years, Roo, Barney, Olive and Nancy have been spending each summer together in the same house when Roo and Barney come into the city to spend the money they make working the rest of the year as itinerant cane cutters. For all of them, Olive especially, it's an annual highlight that makes the rest of the year worthwhile.This year, things are different. Nancy is absent; she got married during the year, and not to Barney. Olive has invited another friend, Pearl, to make up the numbers, but she's not sure she's going to fit in. When Roo and Barney arrive, they reveal that they've had a bad season; Roo has no money saved up, and their friendship is under stress because they parted ways on how to handle a situation in their cutting crew. Tensions mount, and when the summer is over nothing will ever be the same again.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Downer Ending: Following a day where every attempt to patch things up just makes matters worse, Pearl declares she's had enough and leaves, prompting Barney to decide to cut his holiday short and go off fruit-picking until the cane-cutting season begins again. He asks Roo to join him, but Roo says he's staying put, and that he won't be back for the cane-cutting either, because he's decided to get a steady job in the city and ask Olive to marry him. Olive, clinging to the hope that it might still be possible to recreate the magical summers of years past, reacts badly to Barney's decision — and worse to Roo's, since accepting his proposal for a new life together would mean accepting that the old life is over. Following her violent rejection, Roo leaves the house, never to return. | |
