Description Amstel's first major play introduces us to a family of 'Elvis addicts'. They imitate his habits, fill the house with artefacts, re-enact scenes from his life and assume the roles of Elvis and those around him. John Lennon said “... before Elvis, there was nothing.” The question stands – is there anything after?
