Everybody → May ‘24
Written by Branden Jacob-Jenkins
Acting '24 Grad Show, Victorian College of the Arts, May 2024
Set within the framework of a morality play, Everybody follows the journey of 'Everybody', as they navigate their final moments, accompanied by 'Death' and other allegorical characters. Through humour, pathos, existential inquiry, and some socio-racial commentary for good measure, the play prompts audiences to reflect on the inevitability of death and the essence of what it means to live a meaningful life.
With a unique structure that randomly assigns roles to seven of the actors each performance, Everybody offers a dynamic and thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.
