Mr. Burns unfolds the story of a group of survivors of a global catastrophe (!) recalling and retelling The Simpsons “Cape Feare” episode. The play begins in the immediate future and then moves 7 years and finally 70 years into the future as cultural mythology evolves into cult-like engagement and a grand musical.
The VORTEX is thrilled to present an ensemble of youth and adult guest artists in an extraordinary, long-awaited production. This award-winning play originally premiered in 2012 at Wooly Mammoth Theatre Company, Washington D.C. and then Playwrights Horizons, New York City.
Now in its 30th year, Summer Youth Theatre’s award-winning tuition-free program features a dynamic cast of teenage performers and adult guest artists.
