THE GROUNDLING by Marc Palmieri

The Louisiana Tech Department of Theatre presents the fall production of THE GROUNDLING, a hysterical look at Shakespearean romance in the confines of a garage, written by Marc Palmieri and directed by Professor Kristen Blossom. The full run of the production is October 23 - 27, 2018, at 7:30 pm and October 28, 2018 at 2:00 pm.

After stumbling upon an outdoor production of a Shakespeare play in Manhattan, Long Island, landscaper Bob Malone returns home inspired to write a play about his troubled marriage. He hires two reluctant New York theatre professionals to spend a week at his home and stage the play in his garage with a cast of colorful locals. The Groundlingis a comedy exploring the meaning of the final moments of Shakespeare’sLove’s Labour’s Lost, and how the power of theatre can affect the most unsuspecting, and perhaps most deserving, of us all.
