Playwright Israel Horovitz discusses his latest play after a performance.

MAN IN SNOW, Israel Horovitz's newest play, receives its world premiere at Gloucester Stage in a riveting production directed by the playwright. A full-length stage adaptation of an earlier radio play, the seed of the fictional story was sown from a real-life event in Alaska nearly twenty years ago. A stellar cast, led by a convincing and commanding Will Lyman, fully inhabits their characters, and the design team creates an effective, evocative landscape and soundscape.

Gloucester Stage Company proudly presents the World Premiere of Israel Horovitz's Man In Snow fromSeptember 29 through October 23 at 267 East Main Street, Gloucester, MA. Directed by Mr. Horovitz, the powerful and passionate Man In Snow follows David Kipling, recently retired and mourning the loss of his young son, as he re-visits Mt. McKinley in Alaska, a mountain he summited at age 25. He's not climbing, this visit. Instead, he is guiding a group of Japanese honeymooners who hope to conceive a child under the spell of the Northern Lights.
