David, recently retired, mourning the loss of his young son, re-visits Mt. McKinley in Alaska, a mountain he summited at age 25. He’s not climbing this visit. Instead, he is guiding a group of Japanese honeymooners who hope to conceive a child under the spell of the Northern Lights. This powerful, passionate drama was originally written by Israel Horovitz 20 years ago for BBC Radio 4 (winner of The SONY Radio Academy Award).
The radio script of Man in Snow was put on stage in Italy 3 years ago by director Andrea Paciotto.
Inspired by Paciotto’s work, Horovitz re-visited and totally re-conceived Man in Snow for the stage. This new stage version makes its world premiere at Gloucester Stage in October, prior to its NYC premiere at La MaMa.
Written & Directed by Israel Horovitz
