He Dies in the End

Liam McCarthy
A man at a table with an array of colorful fruits, appearing deep in thought or reflection.

Matty’s dead, but it’s not as bad as it sounds. 
There’s no need to be sad, he says, sure he didn’t have much going for himself in the first place. He’s no big loss... Matty recounts his last day alive, over and over, telling us contradicting stories about a life that was already falling apart.

An irreverent story about love and grief, and a young man making sense of his life on the day that he dies. Performed by Darren Yorke, 'He Dies in the End' is a time-bending, funny and heartfelt piece of new writing, and a riff on time and potential.

Supported by Irish Theatre Institute (ITI). Developed at Dublin Fringe Festival Studios.
