    A version of the original play by Alexander Ostrovsky.

  • Achoimre

    The Storm offers a vivid picture of the savagery, intolerance and primitivism of mid-nineteenth century Russia. The play shows a world in which merchants abuse workers, social progress is spat upon and religion is a reactionary force. In such circumstances, the heroine, Katerina, has little hope. Saddled with a weak husband and a tyrannical mother-in-law, she falls helplessly in love with a rich merchant's nephew. Her guilt forces her to reveal the brief affair with fatal consequences.
