What survives when the world falls apart?

When the grid fails and society crumbles, what remains? In Mr. Burns: a Post-Electric Play, Anne Washburn’s imaginative dark comedy takes us on a thrilling journey through time, exploring how the pop culture of one generation – specifically The Simpsons episode “Cape Feare” – might transform into the mythology of another.

This site-specific theatrical experience unfolds over three weekends in three unique locations across Georgia Tech’s campus, immersing audiences in a world where storytelling becomes survival, and laughter becomes legacy.

Join us for a bold, genre-defying production that blends satire, suspense, and song in a celebration of human resilience and the enduring power of pop culture.

This show is made possible by Georgia Tech’s Arts Catalyst grant.

This show is free to everyone. Please bring a chair or blanket to sit on.
