Productions

edit

The play had its world premiere at Trinity Rep, Providence, Rhode Island in March 2013. The play was commissioned by Trinity Rep; Jackie Sibblies Drury was in residence there. The play was directed by Curt Columbus, who said "I knew that Jackie's interest lay not in creating a traditional zombie thriller - although there will be plenty of blood for those that are hoping for that - but also questioning our true nature, and where the true monsters are found."[4][5]

Plot

edit

A handful of survivors in an abandoned building must deal with a zombie apocalypse.
