Mitch and Murray Productions, in association with Redgate Revue Stage, presents the North American premiere of SNOWFLAKE from Friday, December 10 to Thursday, December 23 on Granville Island at the Redgate Revue Stage.
The critically-acclaimed festive hit by Olivier Award-winning playwright Mike Bartlett is a narrative about generational divides. Andy loves nostalgic television, pints down at the pub, and listening to the whole album from beginning to end. His daughter, Maya, wears good shoes, likes good arguments, and has a secret plan to bring down the government. The trouble is, three years ago Maya left home, and they haven’t spoken since. But this Christmas, she might be coming back. Andy knows she’s going to stay. Maya knows she’s not.
Directed by Jennifer Copping and featuring performances by Aaron Craven, Natasha Burnett and Anni Ramsay, SNOWFLAKE is an epic story about generational conflict, fathers and daughters, and whether we’re living in the best or worst of times.
"The Christmas spirit flourishes in this excellent play and production.” - Jerry Wasserman - Vancouver Plays
"I recommend Snowflake. You’re not going to find a smarter — or more necessary — holiday entertainment.” - Colin Thomas, Fresh Sheet
"Copping's careful direction anchored by Craven's tempered but emotionally earnest starring performance makes it entirely worth seeing.” - Rick Chung Moves
