Duck Hunter Shoots Angel

by Mitch Albom

Directed by Marcus Willis

January 23,24,25,28,29,30,31, February 1

A rare comedy with a surprisingly heartfelt lesson. Duck Hunter Shoots Angel is the uproarious story of two bumbling Alabama brothers who have never shot a duck but think they shot an angel. As they lament their fates in a murky swamp, they are chased by a cynical tabloid journalist and his reluctant photographer, who don�t believe any of it�until feathers, wings and a tiara are discovered along the way. The play hysterically interweaves a love story, sibling rivalry, tawdry media, race relations and cultural stereotypes as the chase to find the angel builds to a crescendo in the swamp. Ultimately a sweet allegory about redemption, written by the best-selling author of Tuesdays with Morrie, The Five People You Meet In Heaven and For One More Day.

In the summer of 2004, the Estate of Thornton Wilder asked Ken Ludwig, author of Moon Over Buffalo, to complete a play that Wilder had begun in 1939 and never finished. It was an adaptation of The Beaux� Stratagem, a classic piece of late Restoration comedy written in 1707 by the British playwright George Farquhar. The play tells the story of two young bucks who, having spent all their money by living too well, leave London and roam from town to town in search of love and fortune. Naturally, complications ensue!
