Beskrivning
Professor Magnus Nwokeke us dead. Perceived as arrogant, proud and inaccessible, he is now in the Land of the Dead, watching people, bust, preparing a funeral party for him, in the Land of the Living. He belongs to the Anglican Church in his village, Ezeoke Nsu, so there is a Vigil, by the Umuokpu, a powerful clan group made up of the families first daugthers, who are seen singing at the back of the compound while having tea and eating bread. From the Other Side, Professor Nwokeke cat stop them, but the grins and whines and cringes. Onyeka Nwelues second play, A Banquet for Pigs and Vultures, is a brilliant take on the cruelty of funerals in Igbo land.
