THE LAST BOY ON EARTH
$5.40 – $15.00
The year is 2043 and the world has ended. Ten billion humans have disappeared … except for one. Sprout. The last boy on Earth.
Brendan Hogan, winner of the 2018 and 2019 Martin Lysicrates Prize, brings us a funny, gutsy – and surprisingly hopeful- post-apocalyptic adventure about sustainability, humanity, and the future of our planet.
This show is an absolute delight for young people and their families. Recommended for humans and aliens ages 9 human years and up.
“So well written, funny for adults and kids. Sprout and all the young actors did a great job and the music throughout worked so well. A must see show for all ages.”
