The year is 2001. President Mugabe and his wife are holed up in the State House in Harare, Mugabe in paranoid terror. He is being stalked by an ngozi or bitter spirit, the murderous ghost of a long-dead comrade. Fearing for his sanity, Mugabe turns to a white psychiatrist for help. In a series of bruising encounters, Fraser Grace 's witty and provocative new play imagines the combative relationship between the black president and his white psychiatrist, and explores the conflict between despotism and liberalism in modern Zimbabwe.
Producer Marilyn Imrie
