Everyman is the most famous of the great English morality plays which came before Marlowe and Shakespeare. Devised for and by ordinary people, performed in the street or public buildings, they carried a simple message about living a moral life. Everyman is minding his own business when he has an unexpected visit from Death. God needs someone to account for the sinfulness and immorality he sees in the world, and so Everyman he must embark on a spiritual journey to cleanse his soul and make him fit for heaven. Will he be able to rid himself of all his earthly baggage, or is he just too human? Splendid blend the medieval with the modern, smudging the black and white moral certainty of 16th century England with the multi-coloured contemporary swirl. Using early theatrical traditions andCommedia inspired characterisation, they will investigate the very nature of humanity. What does it mean to be 'good'?
