SNOW [Black man. White out conditions.] by Steve Harper
Featuring Steve Harper; Directed by Cezar Williams
During a mid-pandemic drive from Reno to L.A. a freak snow storm nearly turns deadly. Harrowing, absurd, thought provoking and funny, this confessional solo piece reveals sharp truths about modern life, death and meaning.
Steve Harper is excited to return in the flesh to Vivid Stage where several of his plays have been performed including: Things Are (mostly) Crazy (2023), Many Happy Returns (2020), Special Counsel (2018), and Iggie Imagines Marriage (2001). He also contributed lyrics to the musical Brink of Life (2002) - book by Laura Ekstrand, music by Oliver Lake. His collection, A Few Short Plays to Save the World was published by Laughing Panda Press and won the 2023 Independent Press Award. Full length plays include: Black Lives / Blue Lives [co-written with Bill Mesce, Jr.] (The Theater Project), and Urban Rabbit Chronicles (Georgia Southern University). As an actor, Steve has appeared at The Guthrie, Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park and Theater for the New City, as well as on TV shows like: Law & Order SVU and 90210. Steve serves as Co-Executive Producer for a new CBS series, Tracker, which premieres after the Super Bowl (and after the WGA writers strike ends). Education: Yale, the A.R.T. Institute at Harvard and the Juilliard playwriting program.
