When an embittered, self-involved bachelor arrives to care for the dying aunt he hasn’t seen since childhood, his brief visit stretches to interminable lengths.  As her health improves against all odds – and against his hopes – their relationship evolves in unexpected ways.  A tour de force from the creator of the runaway hit The Overcoat, VIGIL offers an uncanny balance of gallows humour and insightful ruminations on family, identity, and the human condition.

”Uproariously funny … a moving meditation about loneliness and mortality and the love that not only bridges but transcends both … a delight from beginning to end. “  –  Kitchener Record

“Wickedly dark… hilarious, quirky and heartfelt.”  -Variety
