Limbus.
By Ryanna Clayton
Limbus- (n.) Latin, meaning edge often perceived as Limbo.
Limbo is described as a cool dark place on the outskirts of what we know as heaven and hell. A place where souls reside and wait, but what are they waiting for? What if Limbo wasn’t some dark foreboding place filled with emptiness? What if it was just a waiting room where people sat, listened and anticipated their number to be called? Limbus is a play exploring life...after life but before the after- life.
When Aqua, a socially inept young woman finds her life has been put to an end she discovers that death is nothing like she thought it would be. She is caught between Penny a 1960’s well dressed starlet with a potty mouth and an addiction to cigarettes. An ill tempered woman who can’t even remember her own name; and Fofo the mute whose inability to talk has driven her to display the characteristics of a through – bred puppy!
Performed by four of the most engaging young female actresses in Australia, Limbus is poised to tickle your funny bones and throw your ideas on life after death over, under and around the table.
