Hurricane Diane
WRITTEN BY MADELEINE GEORGE
OBIE AWARD-WINNER FOR PLAYWRIGHT
In this Obie Award-winning comedy with a twist, Madeleine George pens a wildly and provocative comedy that reimagines the Greek god Dionysus as Diane, a charismatic gardener who arrives in a suburban neighborhood after a devastating storm. As Diane transforms the women’s gardens, she also disrupts their carefully ordered lives, challenging their assumptions about love, loss, nature and control. Filled with wit, magic and unexpected twists, HURRICANE DIANE is a hilarious and moving tale about embracing change, finding renewal and discovering the extraordinary in everyday life.
Running time: 1 hour, 30 minutes with no intermission.
Directed by Michael Shaw

An astonishing new play that whirls ancient myth, lesbian pulp, ecological thriller and The Real Housewives of Monmouth County into a perfect storm of timely tragicomedy.
'Hurricane Diane' is as fantastic as it is heartbreaking. Full of keen observation and profound human affection, the play both lifts us up and wrings us out.
Madeleine George’s 'Hurricane Diane' is incisively smart and boisterously funny. It is an environmental parable about climate change and the perils of interfering with nature. But playwright George has embedded her message within a skillfully constructed framework that makes room for plenty of laughs and anarchic energy.
