Editorial reviews

How would you spend your last few days if you knew the Apocalypse was coming on Wednesday? For rebellious teenager Rachel Stein - a girl whose father hasn’t gotten dressed since 9/11, whose mother has recently and impulsively converted to Jesus, and who herself is being wooed by her 16-year-old neighbor and Elvis impersonator, perhaps the End of Days can’t come soon enough.

This uproariously funny, quirky, and poignant play is performed by a full cast that includes several veterans of television, film, and stage. Perhaps fans of the off-beat film, Juno will appreciate the similar aesthetic of End of Days.

Publisher's Summary

In Deborah Zoe Laufer's End Days, a suburban family is undergoing a spiritual crisis following the September 11th attacks.
