Death and the Dominatrix

What does a woman have to do to give death a good spanking? A comedy drama from award-winning writer Chris Brannick and director Karen Kirkup. For mature dominatrix Maggie Taylor, spanking is a business, not a lifestyle choice, and those floggers don’t buy themselves. But she wasn’t expecting Death to turn up in a purple suit and with a clipboard. Death has gone all user-friendly following a rebranding, and he wants to convince Maggie that death is just a negative lifestyle outcome. He has a schedule to stick to and a dark secret to hide. Maggie is forced to confront painful memories, deeply buried, to fight off her inevitable destiny. A comedy about love, loss, disappointment and coming to terms with dying, featuring the songs of Annie Lennox and Eurhythmics. “Thought-provoking, dramatic, motivating, emotional, bewildering and burgeoning with love and fear” (The Mumble)
