It is a stylised satirical epilogue on Colonial history - virtually an epic condensed into one-act size. The play is one of a series that have come into existence through the activities of a small group of Rhodes University staff and students, the others in the series being A Place of Safety, H.E.L.P., The Great Wall of China and The Third Degree.
