| Synopsis: | Set in 1980, just 24 hours prior to the infamous eruption of Mt. St. Helens in Cougar, Washington, Phenomenon captures the essence and impact of this historic event through up-close, intimate stories of various people in the town: a waitress, a busboy, a journalist, a geologist, and a cowboy. As these citizens go about their daily lives, an event of enormous magnitude looms, setting the stage for an interface between mundane moments and a grand-scale natural disaster. In the shadow of Mother Nature's awe-inspiring power, it's human nature that snaps into focus as ordinary people grapple with a force much larger than them. The production includes dance and muisc and digital media. nytheatre.com | |||||
