The power grid is down. Providence is deserted. Boston is a mess. And all of Pennsylvania… but Stamford seems ok?

Facing an uncertain future, survivors gather and try to put society back together. The glue? A scattershot network of community theater troupes and old episodes of The Simpsons. This weirdly touching, action-packed play grapples with how our stories unify and define us.

Anne Washburn’s wickedly smart dark comedy charts life after lights in the path to rebuilding civilization, with America’s favorite family as the cornerstone.
