Glass Highways

Frontier Stage presents David Marrero’s Glass Highways. On Christmas Eve in contemporary New Mexico, winter storm clouds buoy an omnipresent full moon. This night, on a lonely Interstate highway, with the support of his Zuni Indian brother Wayne, Jimmy Freewater has to run the gamut of near mythical proportions as he seeks to marry the woman he loves. But Julia’s father and brothers, comprising a dysfunctional family, menace and conspire against any such union. Jimmy’s comic/tragic journey parallels the course of a blizzard the likes of which has never been seen in New Mexico history. The near apocryphal quest pits culture against culture, belief against belief, man against man, through a worsening storm that shows no abatement.

Additional performances Mondays October 23 & 30 at 8pm.
