Everyman

Until Death comes calling

Forced to abandon the life he has built, Everyman embarks on a last, frantic search to recruit a friend - anyone - to speak in his defence

But Death is close behind

And time is running out ...

A cornerstone of English drama since the 15th century and one of the great primal, spiritual myths, Everyman asks whether it is only in death that we can understand our lives
