A Fistful of Snow Hot

Winner of Latest 7 Award for Best Male Performer at Brighton Fringe 2009, Danny Alder, and one of the UK's finest up and coming directors Chris Hislop combine to present A Fistful of Snow, exceptionally well reviewed and nominated for Latest 7 Award for Best Play at Brighton Fringe 2009.

Alder and Hislop tell the story of Oscar-award-winning author Chester James. Since rising to fame from his first novel, The Nullarbor Gunslinger, and lacking any sort of inspiration for a new book, he volunteers himself to temporarily move to Svalbard, a small island near the Arctic circle, to guard the Norwegian government's first Global Seed Vault. He's been there seven months longer than expected, and has started to lose touch with reality. He now spends his days talking to a Moose Head, a dreaming of the life he left behind.

***** 'Danny Alder is flawless' - Andrew Kaye, Latest 7
