The Funeral to End All Funerals
Written by Steven Elliot Jackson
Directed by Todd Davis

Kitchener Waterloo Little Theatre presents the world premiere of “The Funeral To End All Funerals” by Steven Elliott Jackson. Join us for a different type of family event this season which is not to be forgotten. Death only comes once, but family feuds last forever!

Before the Kardashians, there were . . . The Mitfords! What happens when you bring Nazis, a Communist, failed suicide attempts and death together? Comedy!

The mother of all dysfunctional families comes together for the death of a loved one in “The Funeral To End All Funerals”. Seven siblings – Nancy, Pamela, Tom, Diana, Unity, Jessica and Deborah are notorious for many things but getting along isn’t one of them. Today, however, is the day of the funeral for a beloved, so of course the many squabbles will not happen. Not likely!

“The Funeral to End All Funerals” runs from November 17 through December 3 on Friday and Saturday nights at 8pm and a Sunday matinee. Tickets are $20 in advance (plus service fees), $25 at the door, with discounts available for KWLT members, groups of six or more patrons, and youths (under 18).

This is a COVID-cautious performance. Heightened restrictions will be in place, including required masking, lower audience capacity, and no eating or drinking indoors. Performances in the first and third weeks of the run do not have these restrictions.

After this performance the author will be giving a talkback — if you have questions about the show and how it came about, here’s your chance to get answers from the source.

Please note that online ticket sales are available up until 4 hours before the performance. Even then, there may still be walk-in tickets available, so please arrive before showtime!
