The show depicts the story of woman with a special inner force, bound to God. She lives in a world that lacks will, where the ones that surround her are weak and manipulated by the society they belong to. The play `The storm` is written by the Russian author Aleksandr Ostrovsky and shows the tragedy of a family crumbled down in its own mud. The relations between parents and children, husband and wife become social hypocrisy symbols. The main conflict in `The Storm` is the changing process from the old patriarchal principles to the new ones representing the tendency to free oneself from the darkness and pain despotism empire.
`The Storm` is meant to awake the pure feelings and all that is alive in humans. It differently influences each character: a premonition, the beginning of a new life, the God voice that predicts some events or the punishment for our sins. A show about us, about our hopes and desires, faith and religion, truth and lie, love and possession, about false attitudes towards each other.
