  • Learn about the battle for supremacy, madams who stood their ground against well-known gangsters such as Squizzy Taylor, and an all-female crime syndicate
  • Stop outside buildings which were once brothels and sly grog shops and hear the stories of what occurred within their walls and on the streets and laneways around them
