CORNUCOPIA 2020

CORNUCOPIA begins with "In everyone's life, there are magic times!" and traces a child's love for ice skating back to a moonlit moment on a dangerous frozen lake on Christmas Eve. An ode to creativity, in a town that was so beautiful that Christmas carols and stories were inspired by its magnificence 'since time immemorial', the story reaches back into the hologram of childhood, where best friend Marnie loved drumming, but was not encouraged by her family to play. Both girls become women as the town changes and they follow their separate fates, only to be reunited on the same dangerous, frozen lake of Christmas Present. Also heard on CBC national radio.
