The Very Last List of Vivian Walker

Theatre and Physical Theatre • Music
New South Wales

Based on the acclaimed Banjo prize short-listed novel, The Very Last List of Vivian Walker, this production brings together a performance of excerpts from the novel, with songs from the books original soundtrack woven though the performance.

This 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, organising her own funeral and updating her husband and son’s to-do lists.  It will make you snort tea out your nose with laughter, ugly cry, and want to embrace humanity in all it’s clumsiness, selfishness, beauty and awkwardness. 

Vivian Walker played by Madeleine West (Neighbours, House Husbands, Underbelly) 

Music performed by author/singer/songwriter Megan Albany and Marc Mittag. 

Presented by: Albany Entertainment P/L
