      The Actors’ Program and Last Tapes present the Auckland premiere of Vernon God Little - a spittingly caustic and staggeringly perceptive black comedy about American gun violence and media vulturism.

      Adapted from the 2003 Booker Prize-winning novel by DBC Pierre, Vernon God Little tears apart our morbid fascination with violence, politics and public spectacle in a wild, hilarious, and surreal piece of theatre.

      “Holden Caulfield on Ritalin” – The Independent

      Directed by Leon Wadham

      Design by Andrew Foster, Rachel Marlow, Paul McLaney

      Based on the novel by DBC Pierre

      Adapted for the stage by Tanya Ronder
