An
apocalyptic science fiction fantasy.
The end of the world, as predicted in the
book of Revelations, is at hand. The Righteous
are making ready to rocket up into the skies
in search of a better life elsewhere, leaving
the meek, the rabble, to inherit what remains
of the earth.
A rather sinister portrayal of the murky divide
between good and evil, passive and active,
order and chaos. "The Velvet City"
was performed in Pretoria and Grahamstown,
South Africa. The Mail & Guardian said it
was "sure to be an offbeat highlight" of the
National Arts Festival. (June
1996)
The text is soon to be adapted into a graphic
novel by London-based artist, Harry Penberth. |
