Description
Being a kind of score-card of Man's performance in socio-political practices, morality and spiritual existence, THE KING'S CLARION CALL is an inspired allegorical commentary on the state of contemporary humanity in more than a single dimension. Right from the lavish pageantry and panoply of the opening scenes and all through the Dada has, in his virtual prophethood, sometimes juxtaposed sequences, Charles A fashioned a piece that in no way figh by of being overtly didactic. Segun Sofowote - Write natist/Musician Dedicated to alleviating the angst of the huan condition in this highly allegorical play, Dada becomes a healer whocalls out to the majority, so enamoured by the attractions of the matal world, that they choose to ignore their King's Cion Call. Employing poetry, dance and song with admirable dexterity in the realisation of his concerns, Dola's play is a must read! Professor (Mrs.) Karen King-Aribisala - T me Commonwealth Prize Winner
