In this play, an emissary, Ancestor, akin to those in Esan folktales is sent to rescue many who are unlawfully imprisoned in my part of Africa. The awesome intervention eventually changes the focus of the nation positively, heralding the dawn of a new nation and the birth of true Independence. In creating the characters, I have attempted to contextualise the insidious oppression of many folks considered enemies of the state. On the flip side, some would imagine that those who should be in the prisons are those who have corruptly enriched themselves and oppressed the collectives in the nation. In the play, you will encounter real performers and impromptu performers drawn from the audience for the purpose or highlighting features of Theatre for Development and notions of Community Theatre, for the purpose of bringing Applied theatre closer to ordinary folks.
