The Hurricane Katrina Comedy Festival, by Rob Florence, premiered at the 2010 New York International Fringe Festival at SoHo Playhouse. The cast, directed by Dann Fink and stage managed by Christina Lowe, featured Philip Hoffman, Lizann Mitchell, Maureen Silliman, Evander Duck, and Gary Cowling. The play interweaves the stories of five individuals in New Orleans during and after Hurricane Katrina. According to Time Out New York, the play focuses "on the kind of small anecdotes you might hear from a friend in your living room: politely amusing, occasionally moving, deliberately uplifting." The New York Times' David Rooney compared the play's narrative approach to The Laramie Project, with the story told by each character "intertwined into a compelling chronicle, The show extended, and was included in the New York International Fringe Festival's Encores Series, remounted at the Lucille Lortel Theatre with the original cast, director and designers reprising their roles.
