Death In Bowengabbie

Welcome to Bowengabbie where the elderly abound and meals-on-wheels is a boom-industry. The only thing bringing anyone back is a funeral.

Death in Bowengabbie follows Oscar, a young man called back to his old home-town to attend a series of increasingly bizarre funerals as the locals compete to throw Bowengabbie’s biggest ever send-off. Oscar arrives back to this fictional town where all the young people have left and only the elderly remain in one of the most tender, enjoyable comedies to hit Australian Theatres this year.
