Shipwreck is a 1949 Australian verse drama by Douglas Stewart about the Batavian Mutiny.
[1] Leslie Rees felt the play was "disappointing in that it is a drama of tempestuous vigour rather than of true power.
Pelsart decides to return to Batavia, against advice, and also sends some men led by Hays to find water.
In the absence of Pelsart and Hays, some of the men, led by Cornelius, lead a revolt.
[3] The play was produced at the Metropolitan Theatre at St Laurence Hall, Sydney in September 1949.
