Notes:

The play is set on two permanent sets of his middle class home and his mistress's poor home; the dichotomy also reflects his split personality.

Synopsis:

Centres on a character called James Jombo, who is caught in his own web of deceit. He is struggling to keep his wife from knowing a deep-seated secret - that he has sired a son with another woman during their marriage. His double life eventually becomes unmanageable, and the secret impossible to hide.
