Coralie Lansdowne Says No is a play by Alex Buzo about a woman's struggle for independence.
Coralie is an independent woman who refuses to settle down to one man. When she stays at an ex lovers beach house, a series of visitors make her re-think her place in the world.
The play was first produced by the Nimrod Theatre in 1974 as part of the Adelaide Festival of the Arts.
The play was filmed by the ABC in 1980 as part of the Australian Theatre Festival.
Producer Alan Burke says Buzo changed his own play significantly but was very happy with the result saying it better represented what he wanted to write.
