Linda Pace and Pergola Productions are pleased to present a new play written and performed by Abbott Alexander. THE LONG GRAVEL ROAD is a dance recitative with an original sound score by Garrett Parks. The production is set to open at Theatre West May 4, with performances Saturday evenings 8:00 PM through June 1, 2019 A modern re-telling of the Parsifal myth, The Long Gravel Road revolves around a mans primordial recognition of himself seduced in a cosmic overture and by the idea of Individuation, Carl Jung's term for the life long journey in which a person becomes the complete entity God intended. Abbott's virtuoso performance and imaginative writing soars above our heads and stabs our hearts and memories. The proscenium is blasted away before our eyes for an hour of pioneering, singular, and thought-provoking theatre.A solo piece consisting of an array of sub-conscious discoveries and utilizes a highly disciplined form of theatrical acting blending mime, ballet, Kabuki and a writing style which reflects just a few seconds in a mans mind while retrieving the morning paper - the only action in the play. There is no set or props. Garrett Parks will provide his original sound score throughout the performance. This work may be considered experimental only in that moment to moment levels of alivity are explored rather than a more customary unfolding of plotline. But, the story is there. Both artists are members of Theatre West and sons of Theatre West founding members, well-known character actor Philip Abbott (The FBI) and legendary musical star of stage and screen Betty Garrett (On The Town, All in the Family).
