Publisher's Summary
In Deborah Zoe Laufer's End Days, a suburban family is undergoing a spiritual crisis following the September 11th attacks.

But as Sylvia races around preparing for the Rapture, Rachel is learning that there are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamt of in her philosophy.

Editorial reviews
How would you spend your last few days if you knew the Apocalypse was coming on Wednesday? For rebellious teenager Rachel Stein - a girl whose father hasn’t gotten dressed since 9/11, whose mother has recently and impulsively converted to Jesus, and who herself is being wooed by her 16-year-old neighbor and Elvis impersonator, perhaps the End of Days can’t come soon enough.
This uproariously funny, quirky, and poignant play is performed by a full cast that includes several veterans of television, film, and stage. Perhaps fans of the off-beat film, Juno will appreciate the similar aesthetic of End of Days.
