SNOWLION REP

The Maine Humanities Council has awarded Snowlion Rep an Arts and Humanities Grant supporting its next show, Moral & Political Lessons on 'Wyoming' which will feature a talkback with New York playwright Vincent Sessa after the Sunday Nov. 23 performance.
Also, the CRICKET FOUNDATION of Boston has awarded Snowlion Rep's PLAYLAB a grant to meet its operating expenses for the season, allowing us to present the first ever PLAYLAB member-generated show in March!
These generous donations from public and private organizations will allow us to bring Snowlion Rep's unique brand of spiritually and culturally relevant new stage works to Portland this season! Our deepest thanks go to our supporters!

Moral & Political Lesson on 'Wyoming'
makes its New England debut!
Our fall production is utterly unique - searingly funny, disturbingly relevant, a show that turns political satire on its head as it celebrates the unquenchable spirit of theater. In Moral & Political Lessons on 'Wyoming,'
playwright Vincent Sessa reveals a world in which repression and the desire for freedom are locked in a mortal battle for the souls of three young students.
In a society where theatrical plays have been stamped out, students read excerpts from the contraband play Wyoming at a "Commitment Talk" run by a panel of community leaders who celebrate the death of theater. As scenes from Wyoming are enacted, the lecture transforms into an actual theatrical event as the young readers find themselves swept away by the power of the dramatic experience created by the material they are reading. Imaginations soar, long-repressed emotions are reawakened, and the spirit of theater bursts forth, igniting a fierce battle over the very soul of free expression.
Don't miss this unique comically dramatic offering running November 14 -23 at Portland Stage Studio Theater.
