Delectable Shelter

Overview

Though we now live in an age that is mostly without skin colour-based prejudice, that wasn’t always the case. We have come a long way from segregation and discrimination but there are still lessons to be learned from the past, even if it comes in comedic form.

Delectable Shelter is a “black comedy about white terror”. It looks at five fortunate survivors of the apocalypse, each of whom is privileged and white. Their plans for the future go awry when they realise they may not be the only ones to survive, and that they may be sharing the earth on equal terms with those they thought were inferior.

This play is a reportedly hilarious production that takes aim at the prejudices of Western society and provides a all too real look into the future. Brought to you by The Hayloft Project and Critical Stages, Delectable Shelter is a comedy that makes you think about a serious issue. One that isn't simply black and white.
