Off the barge strides the King of the Zulus, right royal in black underwear, a hula skirt of sea grass, a tin crown. His sceptre is a broomstick, topped by a snow-white rooster.

While the main elements of the plot will always be good theatre, there is more than an indication that the social satire he weaves into his plays will have to be freely adapted for every succeeding decade.
