RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU WANT DAD TO DIE

In the midst of more NHS privatisation, a new experimental service is introduced – Death Swapping. What initially seems to be a way for families to intervene and save loved ones soon turns into a nightmare, as political and social influences create a spiral of outlandish mayhem.

A family is propelled into hilarious chaos when a new medical procedure sees them having to decide whether their Father should swap places with their soon-to-be-dead Mother. From debates and revelations to ‘Rock Paper Scissors’ (they’ve got to decide who dies somehow), final hours have never looked so lively. Bringing new meaning to ‘death do us part’, Raise Your Hand If You Want Dad To Die! is a dark comedy where sincere goodbyes are replaced by comedic anarchy.

Raise Your Hand If You Want Dad To Die was on at Theatre 503 on the 17th & 18th September 2021

Starring; Joshua Ford, James Georgiou, Rachelle Grubb, Emma Richardson and Ryan Wilson

Directed by Coral Tarran
