August 2005: 20 years ago, Hurricane Katrina forever changed New Orleans, LA, and the entire Gulf Coast region of the United States. The Category Five storm brought devastation, heartbreak, anger, and despair. The Katrina Project: Hell and High Water features a diverse group of characters who take audiences on an emotional journey into the hearts and souls of Katrina's survivors. Through interviews, collected stories, and found texts, these characters give voice to one of the greatest natural disasters in US history and show how our city ultimately discovered the true meaning of community.
