Always looking for new adventures (and acknowledging himself, probably inciting them for writing material), Spalding Gray sits at a table and tells an audience about the time he bought an old cabin in the countryside, an impulsive buy. But Spalding realizes too late how old and primitive the house really is, requiring a lot of repair and maintenance in several areas, which dawn on him one by one as he lives through a frustrating week. Spalding also talks about going to LA to break into acting and the rigorous audition process he went through to star in a TV movie with Farrah Fawcett.
Spalding Gray's monologues are comic genius! This one is my favorite. Having had similar experiences to the ones he describes, I can relate to this. The intonations he gives his characters while delivering this monologue are hilarious! His timing is wonderful. Although he can sometimes seem to be a bit manic, that is part of his charm.
