‘Natural Shocks’

Hunkered down in her basement, a woman awaiting an impending tornado holds the audience captive as she reminisces and reflects on her life leading to that moment, ultimately divulging the truth behind the storm she is weathering.
The show, directed by Debbie Swann, is based on Hamlet’s “to be or not to be” soliloquy and emphasizes the need for taking action in times of crisis.
It contains themes of domestic abuse and gun violence.
Half of the proceeds of ticket sales and all donations will benefit Crossroads Safehouse in Fort Collins.
