Based on Kenneth Mackay’s 400-page Australian classic of 19th century literature, The Yellow Wave is an epic saga of Love, Heroism and Sacrifice. A prescient tale of War, Passion and Boat Arrivals featuring a huge cast of characters, exciting set pieces, a vast array of questionable accents, just two actors and one very patient narrator, The Yellow Wave is an invasion like no other.
