OOBR Award winning Richard Hoehler's I OF THE STORM, by RJ Bartholomew, is the story from riches to rags.   I OF THE STORM is an unlikely success story in which our hero loses it all and finds what he never had including self acceptance and a long stifled creative bent. Ensconced on the street outside a city park our hero holds forth for all comers – musing, ranting, singing, dancing, spitting poems with aplomb.  A comic tragedian, an Everyman on steroids, a Superman who does not leap tall buildings at a single bound, but takes them one story at a time. In embracing both the joys and sorrows of life, the message is clear: It’s about not wasting any more time.

Produced by Deep End Productions, I OF THE STORM was most recently staged Off-Broadway at The Playroom Theater.
