Based on the acclaimed Banjo prize short-listed novel, The Very Last List of Vivian Walker, this world premiere show brings together a performance of excerpts of Megan Albany’s acclaimed debut performed by Actor Madeleine West with a live performance of its accompanying soundtrack by master musician Marc Mittag and the author.

The Very Last List of Vivian Walker is a darkly funny and moving depiction of a woman who is dying but still has a list of jobs to do, such as cleaning the fridge, tidying the playroom, organising her own funeral and updating her husband and sons to-do lists. The Very Last List of Vivian Walker will make you snort tea out your nose with laughter, make you ugly cry, make you cringe and make you want to embrace humanity in all its clumsiness, selfishness, meanness, beauty and awkwardness.
