Blizzard

Broken Record Productions—Asper Centre for Theatre and Film

I enjoyed this drama about two strangers, Norman and Roxanne, who are forced to come together to wait out a blizzard. Both of them are at a crossroads in their lives and unsure of each other. The characters are well portrayed by Judy Arnason and Bill Moore. The interplay between their mistrust of each other, due to their pasts and the dead body in Roxanne’s trunk, versus their need to survive was really well done. The set and sound effects also help set the mood. The extra cold air conditioning helped as well, though I am pretty sure that was not their doing.
