About the Show

Armageddon has hit, and all that remains is our nostalgia for a lost pop culture. In Anne Washburn’s riveting vision of post-apocalyptic America, survivors invent a new entertainment industry from the ashes of the old. With music by Obie Award-winner Michael Friedman, their enterprise gives redemptive new meaning to the pop hits and cartoon icons we can't live without.

Commissioned by The Civilians. Developed in partnership with The Civilians, Seattle Repertory Theatre, and Playwrights Horizons.

“Writing well is hard enough, but this fiercely imaginative dramatist has her English and eats it, too.”
Time Out New York
