Snow Angel: A Mystery with a Moral

Oddfellows Playhouse’s Junior Repertory Company presents Snow Angel by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright David Lindsay-Abaire. The play runs April 26-28 at 7:30 p.m.

On opening night, the theater will be collecting canned goods to donate to Amazing Grace Food Pantry. A canned-good donation will earn $2 off the ticket price.

The Storyline: The small town of Deerpoint has been hit by its biggest blizzard in 107 years. Fifteen teens must brave the stormy weather to help a mysterious girl named Eva in her puzzling search for a mystery that unites, divides and perplexes the group. In this humorous, eerie tale of faith and friendship, Lindsay-Abaire shrouds the stress and strife of teens growning up in a ghostly mystery.

An Exploration of Bullying: With special funding from Middlesex County Community Foundation’s Council of Business Partners, Oddfellows partnered with the Rushford Center to work with the young actors to explore issues of bullying raised in the play.

“Part of the reason that we were attracted to the play was the way it dealt with the teens in the play and the themes around bullying and positive school environment. It is a more subtle exploration of the topic than many plays you find for young audiences,” said Oddfellows Executive Director Matthew Pugliese.
