-''[[The Mother of All Eating]]'' is a one-man satire exploring the culture of corruption (referred to as “eating”) written by award-winning author and playwright Zakes Mda. The central character The Man, is the principal secretary to a government minister and has enriched himself through government funds. However, a tender deal gone wrong brings an abrupt end to his extravagant lifestyle. This celebrated play blends humour with uncomfortable truths and despite being over 20 years old remains as relevant today as it ever was. A classic.
