Mr. Burns, A Post-Electric Play

Mr. Burns, A Post-Electric Play

24 Sept 2025 - 27 Sept 2025

PARENTAL DISCRETION ADVISED. Not suitable for children 12 years and under. Strong language. Shortly after an unspecified apocalypse, six survivors gather at a campfire. To distract themselves from mourning, they attempt to recount the episode "Cape Feare" of the TV show The Simpsons, as well as several other pieces of media. Seven years later, the group has formed a travelling theatre company that specialises in performing Simpsons episodes. Live theatre is a major entertainment form in the new society, with troupes fiercely competing to replicate pre-apocalyptic stories. Despite this goal, the group's rendition of Cape Feare differs from the real episode in many small ways. During a rehearsal, the group is attacked by armed robbers, with their fates unknown. 75 years after that, Cape Feare is performed as a musical in a theatre dedicated to The Simpsons. The characters, plot and morals have changed into more serious and epic forms. For example, Mr. Burns has been combined with Sideshow Bob (the actual Cape Feare villain) and is now a supernatural avatar of death and destruction.
