Part musical revue, part original musical, Snapshots: A Musical Scrapbook follows empty-nesters Sue and Dan on a poignant journey through their past, guided by a box of old photographs and the memories the pictures bring to life. As the pair uncover secrets and surprises about their relationship, they're given an opportunity to rediscover the love they share for one another.
"Snapshots fits in perfectly with a New Year's theme," says producing artistic director Sharon Maroney, "offering a glimpse at the choices, challenges, and changes experienced throughout a relationship - and the potential for fresh awakenings."
