Nurture

2009

Cooking Fire Festival, Toronto, Canada


WRITTEN & PERFORMED BY

Victoria Goring

DIRECTED BY

Kurt Spenrath


Nurturing is hard work! Mom is babyproofing her Yard Module, wrapping everything in bubble wrap, including her baby! As Mom tries to put her bubble to sleep, a hilarious emotional roller coaster ensues.

Nurture explores the equally strong passions of wanting to care and wanting "me time". When the baby is finally revealed, we discover it is a precious Rose. The audience helps Mom and Rose gain the courage to step off her Yard Module into the world, which turns out to be a lovely place.

A Heartwarming story of conquering fear, Nurture is a fast paced, physically dynamic piece that will make children howl with delight, and moms misty eyed. Nurture is a witty play best enjoyed by families.

Nurture has a simple set measuring 12"x13". This play is equally at home outdoors or in the traditional venue of a theatre with minimal technical requirements. Nurture runs 25 minutes and can be combined with playwriting or storytelling workshops for a full day. Victoria Goring has both USA and Canada citizenship. Nurture is now booking for June and July 2010.
