Description A Queensland premiere, Mr. Burns, a post-electric play by Anne Washburn, is an imaginative comedy that propels us forward in an intoxicating and sobering vision of an American future. After society collapses, a group of survivors gather around a campfire and begin to retell the plot of “Cape Fear,” from the comical TV show, The Simpsons.

Mr. Burns, a post-electric play provides an enriching and intimate learning opportunity for senior students studying Drama, Theatre Studies or English in Years 10 – 12.
