Description The play that stunned audiences when it premiered almost 19 years ago in Wellington has been adapted by its writer, James Beaumont, for a new generation. …'The angels who help God to deal with a New Zealand family of cabbage farmers who, in 1945, find they have given birth to a freak, have been updated. They are now guardians, no longer hedonist clubbers of Wellington - more like the K Rd clubbers of today. The philosophy of the 80s is no longer in fashion, replaced by the gutter'.
