Show transcript
Unlike Viv, Del appears uninterested in obeah and her culture at the start of the play. Del feels her opportunities in life are hampered by the fact she is a second generation immigrant. Del struggles to see where she fits in with both her family and Britain. At the end of the play, Del’s calling to obeah could reflect a sense of understanding about her place in the world.
