Reception

Jonathan Lewis from AllMusic said "While similar in many ways to their debut The Yearning, this album had a harder musical edge, often more rock than folk... Again, social commentary was Things of Stone and Wood's main source of inspiration, although on Junk Theatre there were much fewer specific Australian references. Everything from racism to the negative effects of television are touched upon."
