Hurricane Party & Companion Plays - Paperback

by David Thigpen (Author), Robert Z. Grant (Editor), Lisa Kicielinski (Editor)

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 them 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.Tomorrow Mourning and In Wake of Yesterday, two companion plays, examine a condemned man's final hours through the separate lenses of two guilt-ridden siblings."... A deliciously nihilistic chamber thriller .... Hurricane Party is touching and haunting in the most unexpected of ways." -Jose Solis; Talkin' Broadway"The language is rich with colloquialisms, dense with humanity and full of deep humor and pathos." -David Walters; The Front Row Center
