Stages Theatre Company Opens OWL MOON, 3/8

Stages Theatre Company (STC) presents "Owl Moon" a unique production featuring a story completely told through movement and dance. Based on the 1988 Caldecott Medal book by Jane Yolen, this world premiere production focuses on a mystical, magical winter wonderland where a father and child take a walk in the woods hoping to spot an owl and are surprised by what they find.

Collaborating with Escalate Dance and Theatre Studio based in Maple Grove was a natural fit for a production that is dance intensive. "This production of "Owl Moon" has been the most collaborative production I have ever been involved in. From the moment this book was secured for production, I envisioned a completely movement theatre based piece of work, steeped in ballet - that just felt right," says STC Artistic Director Sandy Boren-Barrett.
