TPST x Classics & LGBTQ Resource Center Present:

Hurricane Diane

By Madeleine George

Directed by Michael T. Williams

Meet Diane, a butch gardener from Vermont with a down-to-earth swagger that belies her true celestial identity—the Greek god Dionysus. She’s determined to manifest a world where every yard is a permaculture, restored to its natural state and capable of sustaining itself. Where better to gather mortal followers in her environmental battle than with four housewives in a suburban New Jersey cul-de-sac? Part Greek comedy, part lesbian pulp fiction, part ecological thriller, Pulitzer Prize finalist Madeleine George hilariously eviscerates the blind eye we all turn to climate change. Bacchanalian catharsis awaits us, even in our own backyards.
