CRUISING PARADISE

CRUISING PARADISE is a production of 20 stories written and read by Sam Shepard, the Pulitzer Prize-winner and Oscar nominee.These tales, many of which are set in the Southwestern United States, run a gamut of emotions. Many of them are just snippets of thought or verbal landscapes. Shepard is expressive, and his voice is resonant. The conversations are easy to follow. There are moments of silence inserted between stories to signal their end and give the listener a chance to absorb the impact of the author's words.
