“Glory” coming to Theatre NorthWest portraying Preston Rivulettes & woman’s hockey in the 1930s

PRINCE GEORGE– They always said hockey was a “man’s game”– until four women dared to form their own powerhouse team, the Preston Rivulettes, who established a winning record that 80 years later remains unmatched in the history of women’s hockey.

Now the true story of their setbacks and successes glides onto the stage with frenetic action and swing-dance-slapshot fusion set to jazz. Witness as these plucky, wisecracking heroines make sports history, paving the way for the likes of Cassie Campbell, Jayna Hefford, and Hayley Wickenheiser.

That is the plot of the latest production Theatre Northwest has helped put together behind Sterling Award-winning playwright, choreographer, and BC-born Tracey Powe. The show will run from February 3rd to 23rd and you can get tickets at Theatrenorthwest.com.
