About Vanitas
By James Whitney & Danny Doyle-Vidaurre
“Arise, initiates, for the dinner party of a lifetime.”
When the skull relic of charismatic cult-founder Gideon Saxon goes missing during an initiation ceremony, accusations abound.
Who better to give the mystery closure than his own restless spirit, summoned in séance? But in this farce, some may get more than they bargained for, not least the insidious host of the proceedings…
Vanitas is a brand-new comedy written by James Whitney and Danny Doyle-Vidaurre that takes inspiration from its art movement namesake. Step inside at your peril and meet the spectre at the feast!
