Life After God: The Play

by Michael Lewis MacLennan

adapted from the story by Douglas Coupland

Adapted from the short story by Douglas Coupland (author of Generation X, Microserfs) with additional inspiration from his book City of Glass, Life After God is a lively, penetrating look at the first generation raised without religion. It’s vintage Coupland – irreverent and playful, even as it engages our deepest questions.

Centring around the eccentric, sensitive Scout, Life After God tells the story of six friends who went to high school together, and how their lives unravel fifteen years later as they face the challenges and disillusionment of adulthood. The six friends search for purpose and meaning in a culture that’s stuck in fast-forward. At turns funny and moving, Life After God is a freewheeling, theatrically spectacular examination of our quest for transcendence, dressed up in a tour of the city of seismic shifts – Vancouver.
