All Passion Spent is a 1939 Australian radio play by Max Afford.
According to the Adelaide Mail "Afford has departed somewhat from his usual type of work. As a rule he writes thrillers, the type of play with which he first attracted notice."[1]
The play concerned "a narasitic hunger in old age—extreme old age—that devours youth... living in constant association with the aged' is frequenty very unwholesome for the young has been noted by many who cannot claim to be scientists."[2]
The play was popular and produced again in 1941.[3]
A copy of the script is at the University of Queensland's Fryer Library.
