A morality by George Barker with music composed by Lennox Berkeley

This play has been sub-titled a morality because it is about a voyage of redemption-undertaken by a pair of twins, Peter and Josephus Amadeus , together with an Irish joker by the name of Jimmy Hill. The episodes of the play are designed to represent a set of allegories on the evolution of the human heart.
