A Fleeting Animal - Opera featuring Mary Bonhag

Featuring Mary Bonhag as Grace, a struggling and misunderstood single mother.  

“The brilliant and heartwrenching creation of Brookfield composer Erik Nielsen and Wolcott poet David Budbill” (Jim Lowe, Barre-Montpelier Times-Argus/Rutland Herald).

Featuring Mary Bonhag as Grace, a struggling and misunderstood single mother, A Fleeting Animal  is the tragic love story between Grace and Tommy, a recently returned veteran (Adam Hall).  The supporting characters in the rich cast leap straight from the often muddy and messy roads of rural Vermont life.

"CHESS" The Musical

Chess is used as a metaphor for romantic rivalries and the US-Soviet rivalry during the Cold War of the 1980s. The story involves two chess grandmasters, an American and a Soviet, fighting over a woman who manages one and falls in love with the other—all in the context of a politically charged, Cold War-era tournament.  Stowe Theatre Guild, 67 Main Street, Stowe, VT  253-3961 for more information or visit   www. stowetheatre.com
