Literally, it means "after death!." When a show comes down (closes) the various heads of departments (management, design areas, and artistic) and others will comes together to discuss what was done right and what was done wrong throughout the process and how it could be better done in the future!. Usually it is done a week or so after strike!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
