Based on Hamlet's “To be or not to be,” Natural Shocks is a 60-minute, one-woman tour-de-force play that bursts to life when we meet a woman waiting out an imminent tornado in her basement. Though a self-proclaimed unreliable narrator, she begins to reflect on a lifetime of trauma, illuminating the truth behind her endangerment. Angela, our charismatic heroine, overflows with quirks, stories, and a final secret that puts the reality of violence, abuse, and firearms in America in your very lap. The play is part confessional, part stand up, and part reckoning.
