Going to St. Ives
May N’Kame, mother of a dictator, travels to England for treatment from ophthalmologist Cora Gage. Cora asks her to use her influence to free imprisoned doctors; May instead seeks poison to assassinate her son and end his dictatorship. Their opposing motives create a moral dilemma as both women’s experiences of motherhood and loss emerge, and the consequences continue in a second act set in Africa.
