The Last Supper

By Reckless Sleepers

01 July 2015 – 12 July 2015 Great Hall National Gallery of Victoria

Written by Mole Wetherell

Malthouse Theatre, Reckless Sleepers, NGV International,

Live Art Co-Production

The Last Supper tackles notions around death, fame, immortality and myth through the final words of history's famous and not-so-famous. Each audience member will be given a table number, a case number and an incident number, where thirteen of these are final meal requests. Limited to just 39 places per performance, take a seat at this unconventional table and delve deep into the lives of criminals, victims, heroes, heroines and stars.

 

"THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT THE SIMPLICITY OF THIS SHOW THAT IS UNBEARABLY MOVING."
