Hurricane Diane at Hartford Stage
Hurricane Diane
By Madeleine George
Directed by Zoë Golub-Sass
June 5 – June 29, 2025
A perfect storm for an imperfect time.
In this thoroughly modern comedic take on ancient Greek mythology, Dionysus is now Diane, a permaculture gardener dripping with butch charm, who is extremely concerned about the fate of our planet. Diane plans to gather followers and restore the Earth to its natural state. Naturally, she begins in a suburban New Jersey cul-de-sac with four Monmouth County housewives in this provocative comedy about letting things get a little wild in the name of the greater good.
This Obie Award-winning play is an unconventional and wild 90-minute ride that is perfect for anyone who loves a good story, a good laugh, or a good bacchanalian catharsis in their backyard.
