After the End

“After The End” is an original piece of physical theater, featuring: garbage puppets, hungry con artists and the end of the world…
After a cataclysm, a survivor questions what it means to continue living when community, language, and even responsibility have disappeared. This solitary scavenger explores the shadows of a world gone dark, discovering stories and new friends in unexpected places. Combining trickster mythology, post-apocalyptic imagery, and surreal comedy, “After The End” explores the role of storytelling in dealing with the loss of a shared reality. If nothing were permanent (except plastic and hunger), who would we become? “After The End” is an irreverent dark comedy for anyone who has had to leave their world behind and start over.
