Mort - Brisbane Arts Theatre
Dallying with death has never been quite like this.
Overview
Meet death — and no, that's not going to be anywhere near as grim as it sounds. In Mort, death is a seven-foot tall skeleton who loves cats, of course. He also offers the titular young man a job as his apprentice.
So unravels a stage incarnation of a beloved novel first published in 1987, and one that proves as funny and fantastical today as it was then. The lead character is keen on the free board and lodging part of his new profession, but trouble brews when he's left in charge for an evening and steps outside the bounds of duty for a princess.
As the latest in Brisbane Arts Theatre's series of Discworld works, Mort also comes with a sliver of sadness this time around. With the book's author, Terry Pratchett, passing away in March this year, crying while you're laughing is completely understandable.
