The Last Show Before We Die

An existential cabaret about the big things in life (& death)

This show is part of Queer Futures. Explore the season & find out more here!
 


Ell and Mary have been dead for three years, but now they’ve come back to life (and the stage) with one question on their minds: how do you know when it’s the end?

Inspired by zombies, heartbreak, and the humble cockroach, The Last Show Before We Die is an existential cabaret about the big things in life. And death.

From the creators of smash-hit shows HOTTER and FITTER (★★★★★ Soho Theatre).
