154.) Summit Sessions #52: Times Square: The Play with Director Kyle Lang

Happy New Year everyone! This week I'm kicking off 2024 with a Summit Sessions in the Santanoni Range...kind of.My guest this week, ADK native Kyle Lang, joins me to discuss the world premeire of his new original play, "Times Square". This story takes place at the beloved trail junction in the Santanoni Range of the Adirondack High Peaks known as Times Square. The Times Square WORLD PREMIERE is January 26 & 27 at 7:00pm at the Ticonderoda High School auditorium in Ticonderoga, NY.Adirondack 46'ers get free admission! You won't want to miss this one!Synopsis: Tom guides his friend Jordan to Times Square; not the one in New York City, but a small clearing deep in the Santanoni Range of the Adirondacks. From this junction, Tom waits for Jordan to complete three grueling climbs and finish New York’s most epic hiking challenge: the 46 High Peaks. As he waits for Jordan’s return, Tom experiences countless colorful characters--teens from a summer camp, a pair of former lovers, two barefoot hikers, and a man looking for his dog, among others--and points them in the right direction as they try to navigate the area’s frustrating maze of unmaintained herd paths. But literal direction is not the only aid these eccentrics need, as they try to cope with their own misery and mishaps. Times Square is a story of hilarity and heartbreak, of unity, and divergence.Get more info here at the Facebook group hereConnect on Social Media:Find the podcast on social media @46of46podcastFollow James on instagram @jamesappleton46My Website:WWW.46of46.COMPLANNING TO HIKE THE 46 HIGH PEAKS?
