Stage Play: Over on Grim Street
“Your life is not meaningless. It is a set of meaningless problems that you are unable to solve due to your own idiocy.”
Synopsis
80-year-old Tabitha lives in a bungalow by herself. However, today she is joined by the Grim Reaper, who she calls Grim. Grim has found themselves on the run from the law, after suffering an existential crisis, hence why they have suddenly appeared in Tabitha's kitchen. Tabitha must deal with this, along with cute neighbours and bossy friends.
Tabitha has felt at a standstill since the death of her husband, and Grim is questioning their place in the world. While unlikely friends, the two have the chance to learn that death may not be quite what people perceive.
