When Death gives the boy the power to tell whether someone is going to live or die, he jumps at the opportunity to keep those he loves alive.
Sitting firmly in the realm of dark fantasy, Godfather Death will appeal to fans of Neil Gaiman and musicals such as Hades Town, Into the Woods and Sweeney Todd. With its witty satire and campy score, the show offers audiences a darkly comic evening that’s sure to get their toes tapping.
