Spalding Gray was born and raised in Rhode Island. A cofounder of the acclaimed New York City theater company the Wooster Group, he appeared on Broadway and in numerous films, including Roland Joffé’s The Killing Fields, David Byrne’s True Stories, Garry Marshall’s Beaches,… More about Spalding Gray
"Spalding Gray’s monologues inspire a reaction rare in theatre: affection. You’re aware of the art involved, but most of the time it might be you and he in a bar somewhere, two friends from way, way back."–Los Angeles Times"In the same way an Ann Beattie story, a Woody Allen movie, or a Bob Dylan song might capture the essential quirks of a group or a generation, a Spalding Gray monologue exemplifies the current Zeitgeist."–Other Stages
