Professional Family Theater
Nurture
WRITTEN & PERFORMED BY Victoria Goring
DIRECTED BY Kurt Spenrath
2009 Cooking Fire Festival, Toronto, Canada
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.

A SWASHBUCKLING COMEDY
The smartest Princess in the Kingdom (Or is she just arrogant?) and her brother, the strongest Prince in the Kingdom (Or is he just a bully?), who have to save their Kingdom. Together they discover that the most powerful weapons are not swords, that dragons can be slain by a good bedtime story, and sometimes having a brother or sister isn’t such a yucky thing after all.
FOR CHILDREN OF ALL AGES
This delightful children’s play combines storytelling, exciting swordplay, comedic physicality, and sensitive characters. At most performances, young audiences joined the actors after the show to discuss stage combat, (Girls can be good at it!), historical use of swords, and the themes within the plays.
Highly entertaining to adults and children ages 4-11, Swordtales is ideal for schools and special events. Whether performed in a park or on stage, Swordtales is guaranteed to delight. Currently in development as an animated series.
