WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
In 1960 Florida, Ruthie and Bo, two young newlyweds, enter their honeymoon suite in the sky, a tree house. A romantic gesture from the young groom to his wife. Yet Bo's expectations of living happily ever after in the sky are soon grounded by Ruthie's realization that marriage comes with many unforeseen - and frightening - challenges. The two lovers struggle to fortify themselves against forces both inside and outside the tree house.
A new play from Scott Hudson, SWEET STORM is a funny, powerful, and intimate love story that challenges our perceptions of marriage, faith, and love.
Padraic Lillis, director of the Public LAB workshop production of SWEET STORM and Alchemy's production of 'Umbrella,' returns to create the premiere production of a love story that will both deeply touch and challenge you.
Produced in association with LAByrinth Theater Company.
by Scott Hudson, recipient of the 2009 Creative Spirit Award
directed by Padraic Lillis
with Jamie Dunn and Eric T. Miller

Sweet Storm. You keep waiting for them all to be squished together into romantic pulp, but playwright Scott Hudson has something gentler and less generic in mind for his debut play, now at the Kirk Theatre: a genuine, honest-to-God love story.
Hudson (a member of the LAByrinth Theatre Company) has parked that story, by the way, in about the most adorable place possible: up a tree. The play's opening image has Bo (Eric T. Miller) carrying his new bride Ruthie (Jamie Dunn) up a ladder and into their "honeymoon suite": a tree house that he's built just for t[...]
