Jane, My Love is a 1951 stage play by Catherine Shepherd about Jane Franklin and John Franklin.[1]
It was commissioned for the Jubilee of Federation celebrations.[2]
The Hobart Mercury said "The play scarcely is entertaining, except for those familiar with early Tasmanian history. However, as an historical work commissioned for the Commonwealth Jubilee, it is a splendid documentary of five years in the lives of Sir John and Lady Franklin in Hobart Town."[3]
