The plot of Is He Dead? revolves around a starving young artist who is deeply in debt to an unsympathetic picture dealer in 19th century Paris. The artist's friends convince him that his art would be worth more if he were dead and help him to stage his own demise. When he disguises himself as a woman to enjoy his newfound success, his life becomes even more complicated. This show is rated PG and is suitable for children old enough to enjoy a full length production.
