In a post-apocalyptic world, people are forced to live in underground caves, sheltered from nuclear fallout and the rumored horrors of the “outdoors.” Doctors and the government alike warn of the dangers of nuclear exposure and radioactivity, but one off-putting family insists that everything on the surface is safe. Convincing the unconvinced and leading a cult of hundreds, the family attempts to crawl their way to the surface, no matter what the cost may be. Francesca Pazniokas’ 2018 The Wild Boar of Chernobyl explores themes of psychosis, religion, trauma, and delusion and begs the question, what’s next for humanity?

This theater production is directed by Aaron Berlau and designed by Anna Hendrickson. It is site-specific, immersive and will be set in Reed Theatre’s Annex. Come prepared.

Content warning: loud and sudden noises, body horror, violence and blood, psychosis.

The Theatre Annex is a long, low, off-white building located on SE 28th Avenue across the street from the 28 West building. There is a small parking lot adjacent to 28 West. Due to a current construction project, parking is extremely limited in the main west lot. Please plan to arrive early, and you may need to part in one of our other lots (north or east). The shows will begin promptly at the performance times, and there is no late seating and no refunds.

Open to the public. Masks are required.
