In late 1918, the troopship HMAT Boonah returned to Fremantle carrying hundreds of soldiers infected with Spanish influenza. Over 300 cases tore through the crowded decks, forcing the sickest men into the quarantine station. The story centers on the devastating loss of 27 soldiers and four nurses who knowingly risked their lives to care for them. Performed in an intimate readers-theatre style with a live musician, this production brings local history staged where it all happened, at the Woodman Point Quarantine Station.
