“What’s the real reason why you won’t let me help with your funeral?”

Two months ago, Jeff and Anna were in love. In one month, Anna will be dead.

Your Funeral is a story about love, mortality and memory. As Jeff and Anna’s last meeting comes to a conclusion, desire, hatred, pity, weakness and grief all become blurred as the two try and reconcile with their futures and mourn the futures that could have been.

Your Funeral, inspired by Neutral Milk Hotel’s song In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, is an emotionally bold and raw one-act new play, written and directed by playwright and musician Nick Samuel.
