Following the Rapture, the world is left changed. I'll Follow Tomorrow by Jerrod Jordhal explores themes of loss, grief, and the difficulty in forging ahead in a time where "nothing matters anymore". Jerrod takes us inside a day in the life of some those left behind while the outside world bursts out into flames. The play takes inspiration from modern media such as: In The Mood for Love by Wong Kar-wai, Songs from the Second Floor by Roy Anderson, and Wes Anderson's many films. I'll Follow Tomorrow is a look into what remains of humanity when living in a world without its number one consequence.
