It's the end of the 21st century and Bert Allenberry is longing for the past. This World of Tomorrow features Academy Award winner Tom Hanks in the story of a forlorn scientist from the future. When Bert embarks on a time-traveling quest for true love, he returns - again, and again, and again - to one special day at the 1939 New York World's Fair in Queens. This new play is written by Tom Hanks and James Glossman, based on short stories written by Tom Hanks, and directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon (A Raisin in the Sun, Fences). Out of the collision of technology and desire, nostalgia and history, what life will Bert choose as his own?
