Harold is the proverbial poor little rich kid. Alienated and fixated upon death, he repeatedly stages his own suicide in a cry for attention from his self-obsessed mother. While attending a funeral – something he does for recreation - he encounters Maude, an eccentric octegenerian who shares his odd enthusiasm for memorial services. Harold soon develops a peculiar attachment to Maude and her eccentric philosophy, and their quirky relationship deepens, eventually opening a pathway for Harold to embrace life. This stage version will delight both aficionados of the film and newcomers to the story.
What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover, when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to an airstrip in Gander, Newfoundland on September 11, 2001.
Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar, and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family. Based on a true story, this show serves as an uplifting reminder of humanity’s ability to come together, no matter what the circumstances.
