About this Event
Echoes of the Storm situates one of the nation’s most defining recent events within the continuum of remembrance and resilience. Developed by Junebug Productions and The Apollo Theater, this theatrical commemoration marks the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, a catastrophe that exposed the deep fractures of race, class, and policy in America while revealing the boundless strength of the Black South.
Eight playwrights craft a mosaic of ten-minute plays reflecting on the storm’s enduring impact. Through intimate storytelling, dramatized memory, and documentary-style narrative, these works explore themes of loss, migration, home, and rebirth, tracing how the storm continues to shape identity and imagination two decades later. Presented in collaboration with Spelman College and in partnership with The Apollo Theater, and Junebug Productions. Directed by Aku Kadogo.
