Magda is just an ordinary peasant girl chosen to play the Sister of the Sun for her village's ceremony celebrating the Winter Solstice. But when the days keep growing shorter, Magda is blamed and exiled. In the forest, she meets an odd group of players who join her in her quest to bring back light to the world by going to the source: the real Sister of the Sun. What is Magda willing to sacrifice to save the world from darkness? Season of Light is a highly theatrical piece that is a wonderful alternative to the usual winter holiday plays.
