Little Theatre of Owatonna

Set in Maine during World War 2, ‘The Color of Stars’ is a story of family, patriotism, fear and prejudice. 11 year old Eddie Winthrop has been sent to live with his grandparents, Alfred and Mabel Winthrop, on the family farm while his father fights in the Pacific and his mother works at a shipyard in a large city. Mabel sister, Isabel and her husband, Alfred, are the Winthrop’s neighbors and the two couples are very close.
When a stranger, Felix Stetler, arrives in town to survey the local woods for trees to use in building Navy minesweepers, events are set in motion that will challenge the ties of family and friendship and question the definitions of patriotism and civic duty. Eddie finds himself in the middle of it all and is faced with some difficult moral and ethical dilemmas.
