Opening November 14, the bitingly satirical and highly entertaining next offering from Snowlion Rep is Moral & Political Lessons on 'Wyoming' by New York playwright Vincent Sessa. The talented actors in this outrageous, hilarious, and moving drama will make their Snowlion Rep debut, and are not to be missed in what promises to be seven stellar performances:
Laura Graham as MRS. STANCHION, political hostess extraordinaire, feverishly stamping out artistic expression wherever it appears with a sweet, deadly smile.
Jaimie P. Schwartz as WORSHIP LEADER AHBEIT, who can pontificate with skewed "wisdom" on any subject from the death of theater to the profundity of egg whites.
Mark Rubin as LT. TENNYSON, who sees the world in the black and white of sex and violence and demands complete obedience from all he wishes to subjugate.
Bob Pettee as DEAN ICON, fighting for dignity in the new world order but finding humiliation instead, until a spark of imagination takes fire in the hearts of his young students and gives him hope.
Ellen Elizabeth White as MOLLY STANCHION, a gentle deer caught in the headlights of her mother's obsessive conservatism who finds a heady freedom in reading from the banned play 'Wyoming.'
Samuel Carlson as CLAUDE TROTT, a straight arrow who just wants to be like Gary Cooper and who finds a special heroism in standing up to the forces of oppression.
Andre T. Demers
as SETH PISSARRO, yearning to discover his true self and dangerously liberated by the unquenchable spirit of theater that infuses the contraband play 'Wyoming.'
