Aston Cooke Collection GENERAL - 58 page, spiral bound document 28 x 22 cm

Set in Jankonoo Village, a rural fishing village on Jamaica's coastline. In a humourous manner, play brings to the fore serious issues surrounding land ownership in Jamaica.

His writing portfolio includes LTM Pantomimes River Mumma and the Golden Table, Children-Children. He has also had on stage Jamaica 2 Rhatid, Concubine and Pupalick.
