Lethe Wharf is a 1939 Australian radio play by Catherine Shepherd. The play was one of Shepherd's key works.[1]
The play was produced again in 1945.
The radio critic from Wireless Weekly called it "a most unusual play... the playwright presents no ordinary murder mystery. She tackles a social problem, flings a fierce criticism at a certain class of women, and tells a pitiful story of the fate of the little capitalist."[2]
