The Elephant in Every Room I Enter
$10.00 - $18.00
April 2014 – Gardiner Comfort travels to Washington, DC to attend the Tourette Syndrome Association National Conference. During the week, Comfort encounters others (mostly children) with his neurological disorder and, for the first time in his life, he could be himself– it actually felt normal to have Tourette’s. Using an erratic and energetic performance style (a nod to Tourette’s itself), and evocative details of his week in DC, Comfort shares his life as an actor with Tourette Syndrome. THE ELEPHANT IN EVERY ROOM I ENTER (originally developed through Mabou Mines) is a strikingly intimate solo show created by Comfort and his frequent collaborator, Kel Haney (YOU’RE NOT TOUGH — HERE, Dixon Place).
