Sturm und Drang

About the show

Wild, a young man traveling to America with two friends, meets Jenny Caroline at an inn and hides that he is the son of her family's enemy. The arrival of Captain Boyet, whose father and family are bound up in an old feud, sets off duels and revelations before reconciliation allows the couples to pair off. The play's impassioned individualism helped give its name to the Sturm und Drang movement.
