Synopsis

Three one act plays dealing with relationships. A Nigerian and West Indian in a London jail trying to bridge the 400 year old gulf of culture and historical seperation; the confrontation between an African military zealot and the ex minister of the corrupt ousted African government; and the marital tangles between a wealthy West Indian who has chosen a life of poverty in Britian and his elitist wife who fails to understand his voluntary exile from their narrow society at home.
