A young man’s quest for spiritual enlightenment takes a comical turn at a retirement home.
During a trip to India, a young Englishman named Ashley Davenport encounters Yama, the King of Death and the Underworld, which sparks a life-changing decision. He renounces his wealth and chooses a spiritual path, but there’s one major challenge: he has no idea where to begin. In an unusual twist, Ashley checks himself into the Gethsemane Garden Village Retirement Home and announces to the baffled residents that he’s ready to leave this world behind. However, Life isn’t quite ready to let go of him just yet.
Written by acclaimed playwright Peter Hamilton, this play is a poignant and witty tragi-comedy that explores the unexpected possibilities of life and the discovery of love in the most unlikely places.
