“Staring too long at the tree gives one a feeling of vertigo
As the circles begin to twist and pulse
And the central point goes hurtling.”
In this world-premiere play set against a backdrop of news headlines and pornography, a husband and wife each become entangled in extra-marital affairs with young people eerily resembling their own likeness. At turns bewildering, gut-wrenching, hilarious, and expressionistic, the play is a peculiar exploration of human desire in chaotic times.

“The effect is intriguing and uneasy. The technical skill needed to create such a weird, creepy space merits praise. Vernal & Sere presents Hurricane Season with projected video perfectly synced with onstage action and harsh, colorful lighting from designer Lindsey Sharpless. Set designer Josh Oberlander’s work is impressive, particularly during the second act of the show, when an average family home is ripped to pieces.” ArtsATL
