Hurricane Culture

The rich character of New Orleans has always been colored by the threat of great storms blowing in off the ocean. Louisiana Playwright Anne Galjour explores the connection between hurricanes and the Cajun way of life in a one-woman play she wrote more than a decade before Katrina hit. She’s bringing her work to the Upper Valley this week, and she joins us to talk about it with guest host Xenia Piaseckyj.

Anne Galjour is performing her one-woman play, Hurricane, at Dartmouth’s Hopkins Center for the Arts on February 6th and 7th and at the Latchis Theater in Brattleboro, Vermont on February 11th. (Click the links for more details.)
