Synopsis

A revolutionary preacher begs the crowds to 'abandon the wilful peace' that keeps them down. In a play crowded with a kaleidoscope of characters from London's most lively mutli-cultural location, he tries to make them believe that things could be different. But when the only thing they pray for is a brand new car or a large KFC bucket, the citizens of Brixton need a miracle to happen…
