Zara is dying. But she’s not about to go out without making some noise. At seventeen, with a terminal diagnosis and a very limited tolerance for nonsense, she has one final project: record her own eulogy, in her own words, before her brain tumour makes that impossible. Funny, angry, and absolutely unwilling to be reduced to her illness, Zara is the last person who needs saving.
Stuart thinks he’s there to help. He’s good at helping - he’s built a career out of it, a quiet, careful life of service that keeps his own grief at a comfortable distance. But Zara doesn’t need managing. She needs witnessing. And that’s something Stuart has never quite learned to do.
Funny, furious, and deeply human, Before I'm Dead is a play about what it really means to see another person - not the version they perform for the world, but the real, inconvenient, luminous truth of them.
Performances will run at The Glitch from Monday 25th May to Sunday 21st June.
Performance Times: 7pm nightly except Tuesdays, with a 2pm matinee on Thursdays and Saturdays
