a Section 8 Theatre production
The Young & The Restless: Snowman
April 15 – 26, 2003
at Performance Works, Granville Island
by Greg MacArthur

Snowman is a darkly comic journey into a frozen, emotionally-barren landscape of ice and snow. Set in a remote community at the edge of a glacial sheet, the play is a psychological investigation into the lives of four characters struggling with issues of isolation and identity. Told in a series of interwoven monologues, the story delves into the lives of a young couple in their 30s and their teenage friend, as they eek out a marginal existence – cutting wood, watching porn, building snowmen. Cut off from society (and from themselves) they are all stuck in their own isolating existence.
