***** Check out the reviews!
Written by Christopher Bryant, directed by Christopher Bryant and Cassandra Ramanathan.
We should move somewhere new when the insurance payment for Mommy's death comes through: just you and me, daddy. Somewhere far away from all this death and destruction. The tropics. Or Guam. Oh, that sounds super nice, doesnt it?
From the team that brought Manhattan's booming theatre district to a dingy Collingwood car-park (Cecilia! The She-Bitch of Broadway, 2011) and one of Shakespeare's most overlooked tragicomedies (Measure for Measure at the Melbourne Fringe, 2011) comes a trash theatre experience like no other. Set in glamorous 60s Hollywood, RIGOR MORTIS tells the age-old tale of a nuclear family tragically torn apart by zombies. Cadence Baudelaire has it all: a loving husband, a beautiful daughter and a three-figure salary. But then, Cadence dies. For a while, anyway...
Like Mommie, Dearest by way of Night of the Living Dead and The Exorcist, RIGOR MORTIS promises to entertain, enthral and shock.
WARNING: if at any time during RIGOR MORTIS you feel light-headed, queasy, or as if you are about to faint, keep repeating to yourself: it's only a play. It's only a play. It's only a play.
