Coming Next - "The President"

The Storm Theatre is proud to announce the next production in our 2011-12 season:

The President

by Ferenc Molnár
adapted by Morwyn Brebner

directed by Peter Dobbins

The Storm Theatre is proud to present the New York Premiere of THE PRESIDENT, by Ferenc Molnár, adapted by Morwyn Brebner!

In this fast-paced comedy, the clock starts ticking for a powerful bank president when the young heiress under his care announces her secret marriage to an impoverished Communist taxi driver. Faced with the imminent return of her parents (and the ensuing social disaster) what is a Chief Executive to do? Simply transform this unsuitable suitor into a perfectly well-bred, well-dressed, well-spoken capitalist son-in-law — all in under an hour!

Morwyn Brebner's adaptation of THE PRESIDENT made its World Premiere at the Shaw Festival in 2008, where it was hailed as by the Toronto Star and The Globe and Mail. The Niagara Falls Review called it a "comic marathon performed at a breakneck pace with brilliant timing."

THE PRESIDENT opens on April 27 for a strictly limited run. Tickets are available now through SmartTix, our official online ticketing partner.

Big Things to Come

Artistic director Peter Dobbins, along with Producing Director Chance Michaels, has been negotiating the contract for our next production.

It will be a small change from our recent work, but perfectly in keeping with our ongoing mission.

We look forward to making the announcement soon - keep watching this space!
