Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play

In our mission to bring you entertaining and inspiring new work, we discovered one of the most exciting and challenging plays we’ve seen in years. Mr. Burns does the impossible: it manages to take the end of civilization and create glowing objects of wonder and beauty. After a world-wide catastrophe, refugees find each other huddled around a fire in the woods. To keep in touch with their past lives, they try recounting the “Cape Feare” episode of ‘The Simpsons.’ Mr. Burns is an emotional epic about the human ability to survive . . . and to reinvent the world through the art of storytelling.
