THE WORLD IS OVER... BUT THE SHOW MUST GO ON
“Curl yourselves up with a nice warm mug of tea. If you don't have tea, just a mug of hot water. If you don't have heat, just a mug of water. If you don't have water, just a mug. If you don't have a mug, just your hopes and dreams will do. If you don't have those... Anyway, here's a song.”
Regional News and Theatre View were at opening night! Check out what reviewer John Smythe had to say here and what Madelaine Empson said here
“absolutely stunning ... marvelous and powerful ★★★★★”
The world has ended, and one lone soul surviving in a bunker broadcasts a radio show to anyone who might be listening across the very dead air.
The Final Hours Hour is a solo comedy play about loneliness, our dying planet, and the things we do to counteract them both. Also: onions.
Bleak and hopeful, dark and silly, a cry for help and a declaration of acceptance.
