    a New England Premiere by Peter Sinn Nachtrieb

    directed by Bridget Kathleen O'Leary

    featuring Zofia Gozynska* and Scott Sweatt

    *member of Actors' Equity Association, the union of professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States

    It’s the end of the world. Do you have a date?

    As an undiscovered comet hurtles towards earth, one lone scientist takes it upon himself to preserve the human race. Hilarity ensues when the woman he has taken captive refuses to procreate, and the shelter he has built is damaged beyond repair. This darkly funny New England Premiere by Peter Sinn Nachtrieb takes a look at our fascination with the end of the world and starting anew.

    “Nachtrieb has a degree of control over his work that its happy-go-lucky spirit belies.” Variety

    Approximately 90 minutes (no intermission)
