dc.description.abstractThe play opens with the singing of old South African songs in the palace of King Khunebulana of Sovenga Kingdom. The palace is glamorously furnished in peculiar local South African style, with all tribal colours and garments represented. The fourth and youngest Queen has given birth to a child. The King sits, surrounded by four wives, one of which is the youngest wife, carrying the new born child. Villagers are also present as well as visitors from neighbouring nations in the land of the brown man. Everyone is dressed traditionally. The praise singer eulogises the King. Special wrestling matches will soon be on display to entertain the King and the crowd. The Praise singer eulogises the King before Malaika continues.en_US
