"Death &Taxe$" is a madcap financial farce set in the very topical world of insurance, investments and KiwiSaver! It's a crime story. It's a ghost story. It’s a hilarious comedy featuring dodgy deals, a potty psychic, a fishy tax inspector, a nutty cop, murder, mayhem and a hairy Yak!The cast includes the following characters:
GARETH BURKE - Middle or late middle-aged insurance agent. An arrogant, show-off who thinks he’s God’s gift. Gareth gesticulates punctuation.
TIFFANY MARTIN - Late 20’s/early 30’s – Receptionist. A bimbo with attitude and a gold digger.
ENID BURKE - Middle or late middle-aged – Gareth’s wife. A domineering, large, intimidating woman with expensive taste.
BOB GREENE - Early 40’s. An unambitious insurance agent. Nice and polite and single; still lives with his mother.
LUCILLE POTTS - Middle-aged female insurance agent. Lucille is an ambitious saleswoman. She is a dowdy, frumpy spinster and although confident in business, she is extremely uncomfortable with anything of a sexual or personal nature.
DOUGLAS GRAVES - Middle-aged Business Development Manager. Nasal and monotone, unsmiling and slightly creepy. Think of Mr Bean crossed with the manic depressive robot from “Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy”
TED PATCHETT - 30’s or 40’s – detective inspector who habitually quotes from movies and impersonates his favourite stars.
ELIZABETH BATTERSEA - Aged 68 – a forthright widow who doesn’t suffer fools and speaks her mind.
