Mr. Burns Theatre Tickets

Take a trip into the future and get a glimpse of what civilization once valued when you buy Mr. Burns tickets. The theatrical production was written by Anne Washburn, with a score by Michael Friedman. The play had its premiere in 2012 at the Woolly Mammoth Theater Company. Just one year later, it had its New York City debut at Playwrights Horizons. The story takes place in the near future after civilization has collapsed. Centering around a group of survivors, the audience then watches as they recall The Simpsons and piece together an episode exclusively from memory.

A few years later, word of mouth and recalling pop culture snippets has become a form of live entertainment. The play then fast-forwards seventy-five more years and the stories become mere myths or legends. The play not only pays homage to the importance of live theatre but the resilience of The Simpsons over the years as well. The play also takes a look at how pop culture may evolve into the mythology of another culture. Those looking for a deeply provocative work to come to life on stage should consider checking out Mr. Burns tickets before they’re gone.

Overall, it’s received rave reviews from the press. The New York Times called it “downright brilliant.” Aside from that, it won a Whiting Award for Drama in 2015 and was nominated for a Drama League Award in 2014.
