about the play
A category five storm approaching Conway, South Carolina is the only thing blocking Macon and Dana’s carefully plotted escape out of town and into new lives far from the past and their spouses, Todd and Caroline. At Todd’s insistence, the four old friends batten down the hatches, pour some drinks, and attempt to enjoy a friendly throwdown while the storm passes over. With each one of the characters holding poisonous cards close to the chest, the temperature rises when two unexpected guests kick the party into overdrive, opening the door to a new set of immeasurable dangers.
Hurricane Party began as workshops at Collective Monday.
