It\'s a Slippery Slope
It's a Slippery Slope
"Sly and engrossing … When he talks about being hypnotized by the face of his infant son, his description of the baby's 'non-agenda eyes' at once captures something basic about the spirit of a brand-new life, and about Mr. Gray's own suspicious nature." —N.Y. Times

"Spalding Gray's psychic slalom deserves an Olympic gold medal." —Chicago Sun-Times
Comedy/Drama. By Spalding Gray. Adapted by Kathleen Russo.

Cast: 1 (may be expanded to 18). Within a year, Spalding Gray's existence has been altered by betrayal, love, lust and loss. He marries his long-time companion and divorces her just as quickly.

Gray tells a heartwarming story of the unexpected joys of fatherhood while trying to find his balance on skis. Approximate running time: 90 minutes (optional intermission).
