Gordon’s play explores the rituals of family, and gets its name from the Caribbean wake period that lasts several days in which family gather at the home of the deceased and share condolences. The piece is set in Jamaica and follows the children of the recently deceased Gloria, as they embark on nine nights of rum, food and stories with family and friends who have gathered.

Great play and terrific performances. A play I won’t forget. The change of note from black comedy to conflict was well done. The only downside for me was that not being of Jamaican heritage I could not catch many of Aunt Mabel’s Kobe’s and asides....the black members of the audience in particular roared
