Delectable Shelter – The Hayloft Project and Critical Stages
An apocalypse comedy with a race-based sting in its tail.
Overview
We have come a long way from segregation, but there are still lessons we have to learn about racial prejudice, 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 an all-too-real look into the future. Brought to you by The Hayloft Project (Thyestes and Critical Stages and featuring the 1980s pop/classical music mash-ups of the inimitable Benny Davis (The Axis of Awesome), Delectable Shelter is a comedy that makes you think about a serious issue — one that isn't simply black and white.
