Pulitzer Prize finalist Madeleine George is joined by Becca Blackwell, Lisa Kron, Nikiya Mathis, Danielle Skraastad, and Kate Wetherhead to present highlights from her new work "Hurricane Diane," a co-production between New York Theatre Workshop and WP Theater, directed by Leigh Silverman. The production features Diane, a permaculture gardener dripping with butch charm and supernatural abilities owing to her true identity—the Greek god Dionysus. Diane returns to the modern world to restore the Earth to its natural state, taking to her suburban New Jersey cul-de-sac, and leading a bacchanalian catharsis with her neighboring suburban housewives.
