The Gray and the Gold is a journey… I went thinking I was ready for travel. I prepared by eating a Westport Flea Market Burger and had a drink from the bar in the Bowery. Over the hour, Maximum Verbosity showed me I was hungry and parched. After the show, as I sat thinking and downing a full quart of water, I questioned my journey. How well do I know where I travel? Who I travel for? Who I travel with? Am I prepared?

I recommend the Gray and the Gold for those that are ready to see their readiness. Feast now and hydrate friends of the fringe festival. You will need the reserves for Maximum Verbosity!

A surreal, swirling dive into who we are when we have no choice. Chilling story, beautifully crafted language, and powerful images.

I’ve known Phil for over 10 years.
His stories are always riveting and captivating.
This presentation does not disappoint.
