SNOW: [black man. whiteout conditions.]

During a mid-pandemic drive from Reno to L.A., Steve is trying to get home from his husband’s house in Nevada when a freak snowstorm turns the trip into a near-death experience. With visibility vanishing, ice on the road, and no scraper in sight, Steve battles the storm—and his own spiraling thoughts about race, loss, grief, and survival. Snow: [black man. whiteout conditions.] is a harrowing, hilarious, and deeply human solo performance about mortality, faith, and the will to keep going. After readings in Los Angeles and at Vivid Stage in New Jersey, writer/performer Steve Harper and director Cezar Williams premiered the show at PlayGround’s Solo Festival in San Francisco to rave responses. Audiences called it: “a thrilling story”, “relatable”, “well-executed”, “nuanced”, “deeply honest”, “moving and memorable.” Come for the ride. Buckle up. Hold on.
