Snow Bird is a new play set in 2009 that follows the lives of five men living in an outpost in the Arctic Circle. Inspired by real-life scientists working at Station Nord in Greenland, Snow Bird’s characters study the effects of global warming on the Arctic sea ice by flying planes—affectionately nicknamed “snowbirds”—outfitted with measuring devices close to the Arctic ice. Led by a cast of trans-identifying actors, Snow Bird explores themes of masculinity, queerness, isolation and duplicity through the framework of scientific discovery. What happens when a group of only men are locked in an ice box for 9 months straight?
