The Twins: Verse play

By Shakemore Dirani

An ageing king decides to step down from the throne but he is at a dilemma: his twin boys, Hunter and Farmer, both eye the high seat. Once word of the Old Man's intention to step down reaches them, the two boys come up with creative, and later cunning, ways to outdo each other. Somehow the young men overdo it. The situation deteriorates; violence, fear and uncertainty grip the kingdom. The young, the aged, all the people are thrown in the fray. Although the story is modelled on the Zimbabwean crisis of 2008, it draws timeless parallels to any situation of power struggle.
