Desire, Disruption, and Divine Power

Meet Diane, a permaculture gardener dripping with butch charm. Her true identity? The Greek god Dionysus—returned to the modern world––suburban New Jersey, to be precise––to restore the Earth to its natural state.


Headshot of Kaycee Swierc

“This play is irresistible: Hurricane Diane pulses with sexy, queer, and chaotic invocation of Dionysus that demands we laugh, reckon, and surrender to our fractured, climate-threatened age.”

-Kaycee Swierc | Director | MFA Class of 2026

“Hurricane Diane” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com
