This short play is based on the true story of a young man, a refugee from a country in Africa riven by civil war. He befriends an old lady in Swansea (Wales, UK) and when she dies, she leaves him a fridge-freezer. But -- having been refused asylum, therefore denied all state support and denied the right to work, made homeless and destitute -- he has nothing to chill in his prized possession... All proceeds to Swansea Bay Asylum Seekers Support Group. All proceeeds to Swansea Bay Asylum Seekers Support Group. Revised edition following Refugee Week 2010 performances in Swansea and Pontardawe; script contributions by Derek Cobley (director) and cast members.
