Persistent affirmation through ART |
An elderly artist, Miss Helen, has created a refuge of art in the South African veldt after the death of her husband. She creates a "Mecca" of life-sized cement sculptures in her yard of camels, owls, mermaids and peacocks. It is through her persistent affirmation through art, even in the face of desolation, that she redeems her life and the lives of those touched by her.
"Glowing with a rare luminosity and intensity,
Athol Fugard's play is also his most eloquent and transforming."
Christian Science Monitor
Winner of the 1988 NY Drama Critics Circle
award, The Road to Mecca has been called
"one of Fugard's most beautiful plays."
