In a London psychiatric hospital, an enigmatic patient claims to be the son of an African dictator - a story that becomes unnervingly plausible. This incendiary tale of race, madness and a Darwinian power struggle at the heart of a dying National Health Service is a sardonically comic piece of 21st century British life. Winner of the Olivier, Evening Standard and Critic’s Choice Awards. "A ferocious comedy that justifies some high-powered verbal brutality." ~ New York Times. "Exuberant… a stinging satire, provocative and blackly funny." ~ The Guardian. What’s Coming? - At The

trips to Mpumalanga Province in South Africa in 2008 and 2009. at the 100 Mile Diner,
Warkworth. Osmond’ photography demonstrates a
broad palette of imagery: startling beauty, inexplicable joy, and
overwhelming contrasts. She
saw startling beauty in the African people, especially the children, as
well as in the wild animals in their natural habitat. Inexplicable joy
burst forth in spontaneous a cappella singing and dancing even while these
young people struggled to overcome adversity. There were overwhelming
contrasts in the rich and the poor, in modern shopping malls and country
markets, and in the beauty of the land. This African experience brought
tears and laughter, sorrow and joy. Until February
