Memento Mori
Λονδίνο, Μείζον Λονδίνο, Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο
Aim
We aim to turn our collective fear of mortality into connection through humor and absurdity.
STORY
I’m Katerina, a London-based playwright and theatre director, and I’m creating a bold, genre-blending live performance that invites audiences on an surreal, comedic, and moving journey into our shared fear of mortality.
SHORT SUMMARY
What if we stopped running from death and started talking about it? What if grief, meaning, and the strange beauty of impermanence became things we could explore together with laughter, honesty, and connection?
Drawing inspiration from:
🖤 True, personal stories
🎤 Pop and folk culture
📚 Philosophy and art history
🎭 Historical rituals and beliefs
🎶 Live music
👥 Audience interaction
The result? A celebration of life where death crashes the party, grabs the mic and absolutely kills at karaoke!
With your support, we can bring this unforgettable experience to life. Join the rebellion! Let’s make some art!
YOUR SUPPORT
In a time when the arts are underfunded and undervalued, community is everything.
Your support will go directly towards:
🤸🏽♂ Paying our brilliant performers & creatives
🌃 Hiring an accessible, welcoming venue (We believe this conversation doesn’t belong in the confines of traditional theatre. It belongs somewhere warmer. More honest. A little messier. And a lot more human.)
🏢 Rehearsal space to develop the show
🎤 Technical and production costs
📢 Promotion and outreach to new audiences
💸 Crowdfunder and processing fees
Estimated budget allocation. These figures may shift slightly, but every penny goes into bringing this show to life.
