The End is a two -and-a-half-hour musical about humanity's last days on Earth .

Director Joshua Oppenheimer embeds his audience in a bizarre bunker a half-mile underground.

Tilda Swinton and George MacKay star in the musical.

The End traps us in a ruthless loop, where its core family risks change or growth, only to deny it.

The songs and dances are not glistening perfection, but occasionally clunky or tinny .

Director Oppenheimer is itching his way under our skin with incredible artistry to expose the revolting reality of human capabilities.
