Inhaltsangabe

Miss Tanaka is the beautiful and enigmatic niece of Broome's former number one pearl diver. Newly arrived from Japan, she captures the hearts of the town's menfolk, but is promised in marriage to two brawling pearl divers. Who will uncover this mysterious young woman's true identity? Based on a story by Xavier Herbert, Romeril's play is a magical portrayal of 1930s Broome, weaving an astonishing blend of folk tale, magic and spectacle as it races to its wild conclusion.
