These Positions Vacant is a 1945 Australian stage play by Gwen Meredith.
The play came second in a competition by the Playwrights' Advisory Board.[2][3]
The Sydney Morning Herald said "The play itself is homely its people ring true and except for one or two static moments they keep the play moving in a country kitchen. The story is rather trite."[4]
The Bulletin said the play "didn’t really grip. In spite of its considerable virtues of humor, naturalness and drama, the great fault of the play lay in its mechanical structure."[5]
