Sadly missed after a decade pushing the daisies, Pauline Goldsmith resurrects her legendary Irish wake. This once in a lifetime theatrical send-off was a huge hit at the Fringe back when Pauline could squeeze into a size ten shroud. Her polished coffin has since toured from Belfast to Brazil. So, pull up a chair, grab a sandwich and enjoy a dram at this wickedly funny funeral! 'Fantastic' ***** (EveningNews.Scotsman.com). 'A brilliant hour... Death has never been so life affirming' **** (Guardian). 'A coup de théâtre' **** (Stage). 'A hot ticket' **** (List). 'Brilliant' **** (Time Out). www.madeinscotlandshowcase.com

Pauline Goldsmith can't stop dying on stage

Death becomes Pauline Goldsmith. Or at least that's how it seems, as the Belfast born actress and writer revives her funeral-based solo show which she first performed it at the turn of the millennium.
