Through a tapestry of spoken-word
poetry, film, dance, shadow art, and a sound collage of personal
testimonies, Hurricane Season connects
the issues that surfaced in the
aftermath of Hurricane Katrina to the "unnatural disasters" unfolding
nationwide and worldwide on a daily basis. Unflinching and uplifting, raw and deeply moving Hurricane
Season takes audiences on voyages of unthinkable tragedy and undeniable
promise from the eye of a systemic storm.
Hurricane Season seeks not to captivate audiences but to liberate them.
