When HMAS Sydney II was sunk by the disguised German Raider HSK Kormoran in 1941, it took with her the entire crew of 645 men. Among them was a young Western Australian Able Seaman, Allan Rowe. For 66 years Allan's wife and daughter hoped that one day the wreck would be located. In 2008, due to the persistance of the volunteers of the Finding Sydney Foundation, that dream came true. This epic story of love and loss, fear and courage, and the resolution of a mystery for those who never gave up hope, will be brought to life using the immediacy of theatre with the visual impact of cinema.
