Don't miss Hurricane Diane—a brilliant comedy that tackles climate change and modern culture in a wild, 90-minute ride. One night only on Wednesday, May 15 at the Nevada Theatre!
Hurricane Diane kicks off with a devilish premise: What if the god Dionysus manifests in the form of a hot lesbian landscaper (aka Diane) who attempts to save the Earth by converting us into a cult of permaculture? Yes, permaculture. And where better to start than with four women on a cul-de-sac in suburban New Jersey?
Written by Madeleine George, Hurricane Diane was a New York Times “critic’s pick” when it premiered in 2019, calling it an “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.”
Directed by Laura LeBleu and starring local standup comedy luminary Jori Phillips as the titular Diane, the cast features the amazing talents of Artemis, Carey McCray, Michaela King (another brilliant comic!), and Hilary Tellesen. As part of Sierra Stages’ Theatre by the Book series, the play will be performed with script in and and will show one night only. Get your tickets today!
