Rule number one in this household: whatever you do, do not say the 'D' word. Set in a living room where the landline rings with increasingly grim news, an eccentric family spirals into high-speed denial as they attempt to outrun the inevitable. Instead of facing mortality head-on, they deploy an arsenal of frantic, manic distractions-unaware that the Angel of Death and the fallen angel Azazel are lurking right beside the sofa, watching the earthly meltdown unfold.

Fast, bittersweet, and relentlessly funny, The Living Room and Death takes a sharp look at humanity's most desperate coping mechanism: avoiding reality by obsessing over the absurd.
