Synopsis

In this delicious comedy, a man apparently witnesses the immediate aftermath of his own death. He's in a hospital, and as none of his relatives can see or hear him, he decides he must be dead. Another patient comes in and as they both see and hear each other, they decide that both of them must be dead. What the other people say and do is not what either of the men expected under the circumstances. It isn't what the audience will expect either. We invite you to enjoy this unexpected show and its especially unexpected ending.
