"Anne Washburn's downright brilliant play has arrived to leave you dizzy with the scope and dazzle of its ideas." - The New York Times It's the end of everything in contemporary America. A future without power. But what will survive? Mr Burns asks how the stories we tell make us the people we are, explodes the boundaries between pop and high culture and, when society has crumbled, imagines the future for America's most famous family. A delightfully bizarre, funny, bleak and wonderful play that challenges dramatic form and the nature of theatre as storytelling. Published for the first time in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, this edition features a new introduction by Charlotte Higgins.

Or its present. Or its future. Stage magic and fantasy unite as the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
