Distinctively Visual- The Shoe Horn

Sonata by John Misto


About the Playwright
John Misto was born in Australia in 1952 and trained as a
lawyer before becoming a writer.
Before writing the play, Misto was inspired by Betty Jeffries
book White Coolies.
She was a member of the Australian Army Nurses and had
survived captivity as a prisoner of war in Sumatra and
Malaya.
Misto states that he did not have the power to build a
memorial so he built a play instead.
