What do you get when you have a Poet, a Scientific Man, a small boy and a Theologian all in one room? How about an Aristocrat and a Democrat? And what of the sneaky Nihilist? Well, if this sounds like a recipe for chaos, you have hit the nail right on the head. And with chaos comes humor, and with humor comes, well, a pleasant opportunity to reflect on all the facets of our mixed up humanity, all carefully delineated with 1800's precision.
Our story begins with Queen Mab (see Romeo and Juliet), the British ex-pat who has had a lovely life on the isolated and primitive island of Samoa, but is disturbed by an invasion of British missionaries and conquesting Germans. Distraught and distressed, that very Mab rides a seagull to return to her British homeland to see how things have fared during her 200 year (more or less) absence.
