It’s the end of the world as we know it

  Dome Sweet Dome by Year 8 students  In this story, Year 8 students  imagine a world where meteors poison the skies and zombies spread from Bankstown to Campbelltown. Trapped inside a glass dome with zombies banging on the walls outside, they piece together what makes life worth living. And in the end, humanity is saved by Kendrick Lamar’s zombie-proof backboard and a slam dunk from LeBron James. Written by: Year 8 students  Produced by: Year 8 students and Philip Wilcox.   Sound design and production by: Milku.   Apocalypse, Then ? by Jake Dean  In our second story, the world collapses the day before Henry’s short story is published in The New Yorker. Henry, a jaded Adelaide teacher, embarks on one final mission: to find proof his masterpiece exists. Joined by Felix, a naïve but enthusiastic survivor, they sail amidst chaos, navigate a turbulent friendship, and grasp at fleeting glimpses of hope in a post-apocalyptic time. Literary glory, baked beans, and not killing the man who saved your dictionary - the ultimate survival guide for a writer at the end of the world.   Written by: Jake Dean  Performed by: Adam Dunn.  Produced by: Jane Messer.   Audio engineer: Martin Gallagher.  It’s part of a fabulous live storytelling show and podcast called StorySALOON   All The Best Credits Host: Kwame Slusher Executive Producer: Melanie Bakewell Events and Partnership Coordinator: Phoebe Adler-Ryan Community Coordinator: Patrick McKenzie Theme Music composed by Shining Bird Special shout out to our volunteers, Ray, Sue, Sharon, Lindsay, Andrew, Ash and Emma.      See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
