    Following a sell-out premiere at Soho Theatre and an award-winning run at Summerhall in Edinburgh Fringe, migrant theatre maker Victor Esses brings his unique storytelling back to the London stage.

    At 19, Victor found his long-lost great-aunt Marcelle in Rome. She’d moved from Judaism to Christianity, Lebanon to Italy, changed her name and kept a life-long secret. Inspired by her strength and her rebellion, Victor started making a documentary about her life. 20 years later, this is his attempt at finishing it…

    Mixing real life home videos, endearing storytelling and original live-music, The Death & Life of All of Us is a funny and poignant exploration of belonging, resilience and an unexpected connection to the past that refuses to let go.

    Praise for Victor’s work:

    “Visually rich… a celebration of experimentation on and off stage” The Scotsman
    "There is a delightful softness to Esses, both in his performance style and writing… there is real tenderness here and emotional connection” The Stage
    "Something that will stay with you… and you will open your heart." ★★★★  British Theatre
    “A beautiful story spanning continents and generations” ★★★★★ A Younger Theatre
