Review: See the Explosive AFTER THE BLAST at Big Idea Theatre
November 13, 2023 It wasn’t that long ago that novels like Cormac McCarthy’s The Road would have been considered farfetched. A post-apocalyptic wasteland, previously only imaginable, now seems not only plausible but eventually probable. Zoe Kazan takes it a bit further with her stark rendering of the future of America in the smartly written After the Blast, where survivors don’t have the luxury of wandering a barren and dangerous landscape like McCarthy’s boy and his father. Instead, they are miles beneath the surface of the Earth and, generations later, have no first-hand memory of the world above.About the Theatre
