Warren Miller's Daymaker

at The Colonial Theatre

One-Night Only Film Presentation
at The Colonial Theatre

Thursday, November 3 at 7pm
Tickets: $20

Join us for the annual celebration that crosses generations and connects us to the comforting constant of snow with Warren Miller's 73rd annual ski and snowboard film, Daymaker. In the world today, the ground shifts constantly beneath our feet, and bearings are hard to come by. Warren Miller's Daymaker will take you on a journey to peaks that replace the mountains in your mind with ones that free your mind.

From British Columbia's Monashee mountains to the throne of Greece's Olympus mountains, Alaska and beyond, join Crazy Karl Fostvedt, Michelle Parker, Katie Burrell, Daron Rahlves, Ryland Bell, Cam Fitzpatrick, Connery Lundin, and more out on the hill and you can't really have a bad day.

We hit Snowmass for the biggest party of the winter, surprise a Warren Miller superfan at the base of Snowbasin, and take him skiing with Jonny Moseley and Marcus Caston. We follow one of Europe's most legendary mountain guides, rewrite the rules of adaptive backcountry riding and try to keep up with some of the most exciting young skiers and snowboarders on the planet.

About Berkshire Theatre Group

The Colonial Theatre, founded in 1903, and Berkshire Theatre Festival, founded in 1928, are two of the oldest cultural organizations in the Berkshires. In 2010, under the leadership of Artistic Director and CEO Kate Maguire, the two organizations merged to form Berkshire Theatre Group (BTG). Berkshire Theatre Group's mission is to support wide ranging artistic exploration and acclaimed performances in theatre, dance, music and entertainment. Every year, BTG produces and presents performances to over 68,000 attendees and, through our Educational Program, serves over 11,000 Berkshire County school children annually. In July 2020, Berkshire Theatre was the first company in the United States to earn approval from Actors' Equity Association to produce a musical (Godspell) in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
