By chance Mark has purchased a house that had an old fallout shelter. Mark gets Louise to the shelter and they are stuck in the shelter for two weeks while the radiation goes down. They have a bit of a history behind them; from having met at a pub; but dont really get along that well.Spending two weeks in a closed shelter eating chili and beans would be trying for anyone; and the play hinges on the stresses and strains of two people who dont really like each other trapped together in very close confines for a period of time not knowing what awaits them outside.After the End had its world premiere at the Traverst Theatre on August 5; 2005.
