freeFall's MR. BURNS: A POST-ELECTRIC PLAY to Run 4/30-5/22
freeFall's upcoming production of Anne Washburn's MR. BURNS: A POST-ELECTRIC PLAY opens April 30 and runs through May 22. This exciting play combines The Simpsons and the apocalypse in a humorous and ultimately thought-provoking way that freeFall audiences have come to expect from this award-winning professional theatre company.
Susan Haldeman and T. Robert Pigott headline a cast featuring Nick Lerew, Kelly Pekar, Christopher Rutherford, Hannah Benitez and Kaylin Seckel.
Civilization has come to an end. The grid has failed and a few survivors are left to rebuild. We find them shortly after the cataclysm attempting to remember the details of an episode of The Simpsons. From this unlikely jumping-off point, we watch the transformation of iconic pop culture into mythology as we spring forward seven years and then seventy-five.
This evocative, funny and genre-bending play asks important questions about the value of live theatre and the nature of culture and myth in society. freeFall's production will be directed by Eric Davis, musically directed by Michael Raabe with set designs by Steven K. Mitchell (freeFall's ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST).
