Solstice: A New Musical is written by composer Ben Rowley and directed by Brittany Martel. The show follows two brothers navigating grief, healing, and self-discovery in the year following their mother's passing. Leading the production are Aidan Wright as Ray and Josh Willis as James, supported by Stephanie Willis as Aslin, Courtnie Harrington as Kayla, Katie Agresta as Jackie, Trent Sano as Jim, Zach Kaiser as Henry, and Gabriella Seebode as Shannon. After debuting as a sold-out staged reading in 2023, the musical now makes its world premiere as a fully staged mainstage production featuring a cast and creative team from across the Glens Falls region.
