Last: An Extinction Comedy is a new devised play blending improv, comedy, and environmental activism. With the urgency of climate change and the mass extinction of species, Last: An Extinction Comedy takes on the future. Centuries from now, a troupe of tired and really hungry comedians roam the crumbling remains of human civilization performing sketches about extinction.

Taking the names of surviving animal species like Trash Panda and Cockroach, they bring humor to a world on the gallows and reminding that a story of extinction is also a story of survival - Mad Max meets the Muppets.
