HURRICANE PARTY To Be Presented As Part of Hollywood Fringe
Hurricane Party follows three friends who reunite after nearly a decade, just as a hurricane rolls into town.
Hurricane Party makes its world premiere at the Hollywood Fringe Festival this June.
Written by Bridget Purdy and directed by Caroline Nash, "Hurricane Party" is set to take audiences on a stormy journey of friendship, revelations, and unexpected joy. Purdy, who also stars in the play, drew inspiration from her upbringing in New Orleans, where Hurricane Parties are a traditional way of coming together during tumultuous weather.
"Hurricane Party" follows three friends who reunite after nearly a decade, just as a hurricane rolls into town. Amidst the chaos of the storm, the trio engages in a night filled with drinking, games, and heartfelt revelations. This comedic play uniquely incorporates improvisational elements, ensuring that each performance offers a distinct and unforgettable experience.
Audiences will also have the opportunity to participate by contributing their own dares for the on-stage "Truth or Dare" game, adding an extra layer of excitement and unpredictability to the show.
