The Winterguard Play

by Avery Deutsch

Winterguard is NOT colorguard. Forget the football, forget the pom poms.  In Mechanicsburg Pennsylvania, a High School Winterguard team attempts to choreograph a routine on the topic of Global Warming. A play about catching flags, catching each other, and realizing the grown ups aren't going to save you.

The Winterguard Play

  • Playwrights Foundation: The Winterguard Play by Avery Deutsch

    The community of national & local readers for Bay Area Playwrights Festival in 2021 enthusiastically recommends THE WINTERGUARD PLAY as a Semi-Finalist at Playwrights Foundation out of 755 plays. We were deeply moved by the artistic merits of the sharp dialogue and distinct characterization. We're compelled by the play's promise, as it explores the impending horror of climate change through the lens of the modern teen. We hope this play is widely read, finds dedicated collaborators, and moves swiftly towards production. #BAPF2021
