The Interminable Suicide of Gregory Church

Sorry this event has been and gone.

Multi award-winning comedian and storyteller Daniel Kitson's critically acclaimed show tells the sad and funny story of Gregory Church, his life and his deferred death.

Gregory had fifty seven letters to write. He'd never written that many letters, not in one go. In fact, he'd never written a single letter and it was taking significantly longer than he'd anticipated. He'd started, full of optimism, curiously enough, at 9am and now here he was eight hours later halfway through letter twenty four. He glanced at his watch and then at the noose hanging over his head.

Gregory sighed.

Had he known how long suicide letters take, he thought, he wouldn't have cancelled the milk for the morning.

The story of a death postponed by life.

Daniel Kitson, multi award-winning comedian, storyteller and keen culinary hobbyist returns to New Zealand for the first time since 2003 with "an inspired fictional anecdote that flowers into an unobtrusive masterpiece of modern lowkey storytelling" (The Scotsman). This critically acclaimed show tells the sad and funny story of Gregory Church, his life and his deferred death.
