Smallie 12: True Democracy: Smallie Play Series Philip Begho

"Smallie 12: True Democracy" is a one-act play featuring the three characters in the Smallie Series. In this episode, Smallie's mind is set on a holiday at the Obudu tourist resort to mark Democracy Day. But can she sell the idea to her parents? She does! Ah, but nevertheless - sparks and fireworks fly! Can it be otherwise? Smallie is an eight-year-old girl locked in the body of a sixteen-year-old. Her mind is sharp, but her language skills are ridiculously poor. What is more, her parents have dodgy moral inclinations, but Smallie is as straight as an arrow. Any surprise then about the sparks and fireworks? Absurd, witty and funny! And very, very telling...
