About the play
If you broadcast a radio show, and no one is alive to hear it, does it still rock-n-roll? Set in an underground bunker after a catastrophic climate-change disaster, Captain Izzy Hicks broadcasts a rockin’ radio show in hopes of finding any survivors on the surface. Kept company only by MOM, the resident AI, and her trusty robot companion, iZak, Izzy tries desperately to stay fit in mind, body, and spirit, as her resources slowly run out, and the reality of being truly alone begins to set in…
