The Cottage at Tathra
An intriguing short mystery play by David Burke. Directed by Bruce Waddell.
ABOUT THE PLAY: The lethal raid on Sydney Harbour by Japanese midget subs in May 1942 was breathtakingly audacious. But what of the tragic happenings that followed as they moved south? In their deadly assault on shipping off the NSW South Coast did the Japanese secretly come ashore on lonely beaches to seek supplies?
Was that possibly the only time that an enemy set foot on our mainland? Perhaps Tathra Painter Sarah Beamish knew the
answer. This play follows the contemporary investigations of a young writer as he tries to unravel the fatal mystery of what really happened on the South Coast during WW2.
