Duck Hunter Shoots Angel

Lamplighters Theatre
5915 Severin Dr. La Mesa

Famed author Mitch Albom (Tuesdays With Morrie, The Five People You Meet in Heaven) penned this wry and heartfelt comic tale, which sets its sights on a pair of duck-hunting Alabama brothers, who believe they've shot down an actual, honest-to-God angel. But the feathers really start flying when a cynical tabloid journalist and photographer descend on the swamp where the guilt-ridden duo ponder their fates... only to find what looks like a halo and wings. This Lamplighters Community Theatre production in La Mesa deals with sibling rivalry, media muckraking and ultimately, receiving that sweet shot at redemption.
