Minnesota Frost Players to Make Appearance at Theatre in the Round's Hocky Play, Glory, on January 24
Friday, December 20, 2024 at 4:04PM
Theatre in the Round Players (TRP) is presenting Glory by Tracey Power which tells the true story of one of Canada’s most successful hockey teams – the Preston Rivulettes, who won four Dominion Women’s Hockey Championships and 10 Ontario Titles from 1931 to 1940.
To celebrate the current and historical significance of women’s hockey, two Minnesota Frost players will be attending the production on January 24. Taylor Heise (2024 Walter Cup Playoff MVP) and Grace Zumwinkle (2024 PWHL Rookie of the Year) will be appearing at the theatre before the performance to greet fans.
As the fourth production in Theatre in the Round’s 73rd season, Glory translates hockey to the stage through jazz dance, telling the story of four friends who set out to prove that hockey isn’t just a sport for men. With the Great Depression weighing heavily on the nation and fascism rising in Europe, can they overcome the odds to forge their own path to glory? Full of humor and inspiration, Glory is a thrilling hockey play for the whole family.
Sean Dooley directs the six-member cast with choreography by Antonia Perez, set design by Keven Lock, costumes by Parker Adams, lighting by Andy Kedl, props by Elliott Van Winkle, and sound design by Abe Gabor.
Glory runs January 17 to February 9, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm, Sundays at 2pm.
