Jake Sturdy, a once-successful writer, cares for his disabled and hormonal teenage son, Joey. He is also having an affair with his former student, Robyn. But when Jake is struck by an unexpected disaster, he is forced to confront some difficult questions about who’s really looking after who.

Funny and moving, Kill Me Now is an ode to the triumph of the human spirit.

International award-winning playwright Brad Fraser and Founding Artistic Director of The Royal Exchange Braham Murray reunite for the sixth time for the European première of this ground-breaking play.
