Roses To The Living
Pasuz Productions • Professional company
About the show
Roses to the Living is a darkly comedic new writing piece by Pasuz Productions, performed at The Vault at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show is about reputations and how you lose them — how one version of events becomes 'the truth', and what your options are when your terribly worthy one-woman show is repeatedly interrupted by rowdy hecklers. This playful meta-theatrical piece juggles the stories of a well-meaning student, a director with a dark secret, a serially misunderstood monarch and a long dead literary giant. Who gets to tell their truth before the final curtain falls?
Why see this show?
Smart, playful and genuinely funny meta-theatre that turns the act of storytelling into the subject itself. If you enjoy shows that know exactly what they're doing while pretending they don't, Roses to the Living is a treat.
