Story Within a Story

A recent example:

Our Country's Good (based on a true story) is currently playing at the National Theatre (South Bank, London).

The play, set in Botany Bay 1788, is by Timberlake Wertenbaker and is based on The Playmaker by Thomas Keneally

The story within the story here is a play rehearsed and performed by convicts, part of the first group brought to Australia. Through the experience, they regain respect for themselves. Music, set, and dance prominently reference aboriginal art, so we are reminded that the convicts' and administrators' stories are indeed, a part of that larger colonial narrative, as well.
