The Last Kid in the Universe

by Brent Alles

April 14 & 15

At the Lowell Performing Arts Center

For 13-year-old Jennifer “Jenny” Robinson, today was like any other day: playing some games with her best friend Duncan Hines; trying to avoid bully, Ashley Sampson, and her “minions,” Pixie and Mixie; looking forward to seeing her dad when she gets home; eating what her mom made for dinner; and attempting to ignore her annoying little brother Bobby. Little did Jenny know that today would not actually be like any other day… because today is the LAST day… of the Earth itself! An alien tyrant by the name of Gorbag thinks our planet is blocking his view of Venus, so he orders his people to destroy Earth! Hilarious hijinks, madcap action, and even a little bit of heartwarming affirmation come together in this heartfelt homage to 80’s and 90’s science fiction.
