Overview
Indie theatre legends Ridiculusmus are back with a dark comedy about love and ageing.
Meet two characters, blessed with eternal life but denied eternal youth. As they stumble through their bizarre existence, neither fully alive nor fully dead, they attempt to reclaim the right to a good death as they try to remember how to grieve.
Ridiculusmus have been making shows for over 25 years and are masters at making shows that are physical and quizzical, as they take a sideways look at big questions.
Join us for show that's serious and funny, and seriously funny.
Age Recommendation: 13+
