Vigil
by Morris Panych
What readers are saying
Readers enjoy the dark humor and unique character dynamics in the play. Many find it a poignant exploration of family and identity, though some express disappointment with the ending. Overall, it resonates well as a two-hander that mixes comedy with somber themes.
Synopsis
Morris Panych’s brilliant new black comedy is structured around what happens when an extremely self-centred and shallow person finds himself, through his own errors and inattentiveness, in a life-and-death situation with profound and far-reaching consequences.
A play of twisted circumstance, mistaken identity and surprising turns, it is deliciously absurd, incredibly funny and poignantly tender.
