Groundwork
December 5, 2015 @ 2:00 pm
Groundwork, a one-man play co-written by Mike Ostroski and Derek Davidson, traces the personal awakening of Paul, an incredibly busy actor whose frantic personal and professional lifestyle has brought him to the brink of near-mental breakdown. But Paul has had an epiphany. In his moment of crisis, a voice suggests: Grow a garden. This, he thinks, will surely calm his mind, and may, in fact, go far toward solving every problem on the planet! Performed by Ostroski and directed by Davidson, Groundwork follows Paul as he shares his journey of how he heeded the voice and, indeed, grew his first garden. He introduces us to the rollercoaster joys and sorrows of planning a plot, picking seeds, growing first shoots, dealing with pests…and, yes, manure. As he bestows his newfound wisdom, however, it becomes painfully clear that what he thought was the absolute solution for healing and restoring order to both the planet and himself, may not at all be as simple as he had previously thought. Mike has performed Groundwork throughout the country, most recently at NYC United Solo Theatre Festival.
Duration: 65 minutes.
