A Murder of Crows, directed by Lynne Karey-McKenna, runs April 7 to May 7 at Surrey Little Theatre. Showtimes are Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. with additional Sunday matinees on April 17 and May 1 at 2 p.m. A Murder of Crows is Surrey Little Theatre’s Fraser Valley Zone entry into the Theatre BC festival.
Award-winning author Ed Graczyk’s heartfelt story takes place in small town Wallace, Ohio, once a thriving farming community, now a chemically polluted soon to be ghost town. The central characters, Harley and Jenny Woodson, are being relocated to a trailer home in the city by their long estranged son and daughter-in-law.
This whimsical tale of an environmental nightmare intertwines touching emotional drama with a generous dose of comedy. A compassionate old fashion play about life and death in middle America touching on themes of aging, love, loyalty and displacement, A Murder of Crows softens the hard facts of life and death with infectious warmth and a great sense of humour.
Come out and enjoy an evening of lovable crotchety Americana with the amiable, quirky characters at Woodson’s General Store.
