During a stormy night, a lonely woman is confining herself, when another young woman knocks at her door, seeking shelter. They’re not yet aware that they got stuck in the most terrifying hurricane…

Hurricanes, a contemporary tragedy from Martinique. Guiding us through a life-threatening double investigation, the two main characters run towards a devastating, mindblowing truth; a secret that unites them.

In 2016, Hurricanes was presented ten times in Martinique & Guadeloupe, then made its way to the notorious Festival d’Avignon OFF 2017 where it was awarded a trophy “Coup de Coeur” from the Press Club Avignon-Vaucluse. Hurricanes had no less than 2000 spectators in 32 performances.

This theater play will be presented in French with English subtitles during the Closing Ceremony of the Tout-Monde Festival 2019 Echo-Natures.
