End of the World With Symposium to Follow
Arthur Kopit
Postlude, A Play For The Moment
by Jerome Mcdonough
Synopsis
It is one hundred years from now...or tomorrow morning, after all the unthinkable world destruction has occurred.
Land masses are disappearing, swamped by a melting permafrost.
Worldwide volcanic eruptions and fires cloak the earth with a permanent red haze.
In this post-apocalyptic nightmare, a small band of survivors clings to life and tries to remain humane and moral.
But this is no easy task as they must do so at the hands of vicious scavengers and a trio of neo-feudal tyrants.
A wonderfully theatrical ensemble-style play, Postlude also features a reflective soliloquy for each principle character.
Postlude is a highly performable play.
