We all feel underappreciated at work, and Death is no exception.
Death (personified) puts a lot of work into the way we die, and never gets the credit he deserves. Across an hour, Death takes us through the artistry involved in ensuring that each and every one of us meets our maker. This musical black-comedy shows the lighter side of the inevitable.
Death Suits You features an original book, lyrics and score by Sam Hooper and Robert Tripolino, directed by Gabrielle Scawthorn.
Sam is a writer, performer, director and choreographer; he has previously presented Death Suits You in the 2019 Camden Fringe Festival where it was nominated as part of OffFest. His previous works include 1&Only (Director: VAULTS 2020), Bonnie and Clyde (Director: Hayes Theatre Co), In Loving Memory (Director: Hayes Theatre Co), The Apologists (AD, Uk Tour), Lipstick: A Fairytale of Modern Iran (AD, Omnibus Theatre).
