This play is a two-act drama that pits four estranged family members together in an old house during a raging hurricane. The core of the clash is between history doctoral student Courtney and her grandfather, a World War Two veteran. Courtney's brother, meanwhile, attempts to make peace. As the hurricane draws closer, the wind howls, the trees fall, and the tension in the house ratchets up. And with the last-minute addition of the family's creepy uncle, the deep-rooted problems of the family's past all surface and explode.
