Silver City, New Mexico, January 22 – Virus Theater invites audiences to embark on a unique theatrical journey with their latest production, running from January 26 to February 4.

About the Production: "Lost, Found, and Snowbound" is an original melodrama that plays with traditional Western elements, throwing in unexpected twists with elements from the 1960s and science fiction. The show, a product of a three-month workshop with local high school students, features a dynamic mix of song and dance, eccentric inventions, clever banter, and perils aplenty…. And of course, popcorn throwing! 

Plot Synopsis: In the secret laboratory of a snowbound chalet, high in the mountains, a wild-eyed inventor and his robot assistant prepare to test a machine that could alter the course of human history. Meanwhile, his diabolical children plot to acquire the vast fortune recently inherited by a pair of sweet sisters who live nearby. But their schemes are impeded by the girl's devoted aunts and a resourceful scholar who finds himself in the middle of the mayhem. And the sisters, themselves, may prove more capable than it first appears.
