Y2K: A Survivalist Musical

Y2K imagines a community of doomsday preppers that fled society at the time of the “Year 2000 Problem,” otherwise known as Y2K. Only, it’s 2020, and none of them got word that Y2K didn’t happen. A comedy exploring themes of fake news, uncertainty, and family, Y2K questions how we are able to interact with others so different from ourselves in a world where apocalypse is commonplace and the truth seems harder and harder to come by. 

Y2K: A Survivalist Musical is a senior project in Music for Dylan Schifrin (ES ‘20)
