"Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play"
"Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play"
By Anne Washburn, score by Michael Friedman
“After the collapse of civilization, a group of survivors share a campfire and begin to piece together the plot of The Simpsons episode “Cape Feare” entirely from memory. Seven years later, this and other snippets of pop culture (sitcom plots, commercials, jingles and pop songs) have become the live entertainment of a post-apocalyptic society, sincerely trying to hold onto its past. Seventy-five years later, these are the myths and legends from which new forms of performance are created.” -Concord Theatricals
Ages 6 and up
