MERCY OF A STORM

by Jeffrey Hatcher
November 16 - December 17, 2006

WHO SAYS BREAKIN' UP IS HARD TO DO?
George and Zanovia want a divorce and they're going to hash it out. No lawyers, no witnesses, just one-on-one. There'll be much talk about what went wrong - might get rough. 'Course, it's nothing that a snowstorm, champagne, New Year's Eve and the touch of fur on bare skin couldn't cure. Their anxious parting may just become an amorous pairing, what with all that steam on the windows. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Directed by Mary MacDonald Kerr

Featuring James Pickering and Abbey Siegworth
