Mr. Burns: A Post-Electric Play

For those who, like me, had never heard of this play prior to doing it, Mr. Burns is a play that follows a group of people after a nuclear apocalypse. Set in 3 different time zones, a few months, a few years, and then 70 years after the event, we follow a group of people as they go from sitting around a campfire, to a traveling show, to a large scale musical. While the show was great fun to work on, it presented a lot of challenges as I found myself often wanting to do too much for the Director's prop-lite vision. It worked out in the end though, and a strange, wonderful world emerged by the end of the process.
