The Apollo’s New Works Program, in collaboration with Junebug Productions, presents Echoes of the Storm, a theatrical commemoration marking the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. This special project brings together eight playwrights—four based in New Orleans and the gulf coast states, and four Louisiana-born writers now based in New York —to create a series of 10-minute plays reflecting on the enduring impact of Katrina.
In an evening of intimate storytelling, dramatized memory, and documentary-style narrative, these original works will explore themes of loss, resilience, migration, and home, offering a deeply personal look at how the storm reshaped lives, communities, and cultural identity two decades later.
The project will culminate in an evening of live readings, providing audiences with an immediate engagement with these urgent stories. Echoes of the Storm honors Hurricane Katrina’s lasting imprint on the people of the gulf coast, ensuring their narratives are preserved, heard, and remembered.
Echoes of the Storm is part of The Apollo’s Southern Stories series.
