🎭Got weekend plans? Why not take in some theatre at your favorite community arts center?

💡Tonight is opening night of Mr. Burns: a post-electric play here at the HMT! This dark comedy by Anne Washburn depicts the evolution of stories through the generations in a post-apocalyptic world; specifically, how the Simpsons episode "Cape Feare" goes from a memory around a campfire, to a haphazardly staged production by a roving band of actors, and finally to a fully staged passion play almost a century later.

💡This production is both haunting and heartfelt, and our Vanishing Elephant Players cast and crew have worked hard to bring it to our stage, so don't miss out! You only have one weekend to catch Mr. Burns before it's gone for good!

May 29, 30 - 7pm
May 31 - 3pm
