This Storm Is What We Call Progress

By Jason Grote
Directed by Jenny McConnell Frederick
June 19 – July 20
World Premiere

“The world premiere of Jason Grote’s “This Storm Is What We Call Progress” is both mind-blowing and a bit mind-numbing, but as modeling clay for a troupe that likes to get its mitts on provocative, idea-crammed and still-evolving theater, it’s primo material.”
— Washington Post

A young man stumbles into a dusty old recording studio run by an enigmatic old woman and her beautiful assistant. Here he is drawn into an ancient and powerful world of Jewish mysticism and Kabbalistic ritual and discovers that he may be something more than he had ever imagined.
