WVUp All Night will showcase events Friday (Sept. 21) based on award-winning novel “Station Eleven,” a science fiction novel that follows a traveling troupe as they navigate a post-pandemic world exploring what life would be like if the world’s population, technology, and communication were devastated by a world-wide pandemic flu.

The evening will feature a performance by the Vintage Theatre Company’s Shakespeare troupe, a mobile escape room, an outdoor survival and skills course, a trivia game based on the novel and survival, and the creation of a “museum of civilization,” among other activities. Students can also enjoy a string quartet and a "survival rations" food bar.

The program is funded in part by a grant from the Campus Read Committee and the Office of the Provost.
