Natural shocks
By Lauren Gunderson
The Gaslight Theater- St. Louis, MO
Based on Hamlet's βTo be or not to be,β Natural Shocks is a 60-minute, one-woman tour-de-force play that bursts to life when we meet a woman waiting out an imminent tornado in her basement. Angela, our fast-talking heroine, overflows with quirks, stories, and a final secret that puts the reality of guns in America in your very lap. The play is part confessional, part stand up, and part reckoning.
