Monster in a Box

New York: Lincoln Center, Circa 1990. Vintage publicity photograph of actor and writer Spalding Gray, 1990. Printed mimeo snipe on the verso issued by the Lincoln Center, promoting Gray's 1990 production "Monster in a Box," with credit for photographer Paula Court.

"Monster in a Box" ran from November 2, 1990, through May 27, 1991, at the Lincoln Center, following Gray's frustrations writing his semi-fictitious memoir, "Impossible Vacation."

Gray is best remembered today for his long-form, onstage autobiographical monologues, including "Swimming to Cambodia," later adapted by Jonathan Demme for film in 1987, as well as his monologues "Monster in a Box" and "Gray's Anatomy," adapted by Nick Broomfield and Steven Soderbergh, respectively.
