In
1960 Florida, Ruthie and Bo, two young newlyweds, enter their honeymoon
suite in the sky, a tree house. A romantic gesture from the young groom
to his wife. Yet Bo’s expectations of living happily ever after in the
sky are soon grounded by Ruthie’s realization that marriage comes with
many unforeseen -- and frightening -- challenges. The two lovers
struggle to fortify themselves against forces both inside and outside
the tree house. A new play from Scott Hudson, Sweet Storm is a funny,
powerful, and intimate love story that challenges our perceptions of
marriage, faith, and love. Padraic Lillis, director of LAB’s workshop
production of Sweet Storm and Alchemy’s production of Umbrella, returns
to create the premiere production of a love story that will both deeply
touch and challenge you.
