Award Winning Show: “The Bark & The Tree” Returns for Encore Performance in NYC - Tickets on Sale Now

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 21, 2014 -- The Bark & The Tree, Vivian Nesbitt’s award winning, one-woman play about connection and transformation will be back again at the United Solo Festival on October 9, 2014. Tickets are currently on sale. Last Year, the play won best documentary play and best lighting design out of 120 entries at the 2013 United Solo Theatre Festival—earning her an invitation to return.

Nesbitt, an award-winning actor, writer and teacher, has worked in film and television as well as on the stage. Some of her more prominent roles include parts in the new WGN series Manhattan, Breaking Bad, Law & Order: SVU and Longmire.

The Bark & The Tree is set in Ireland, and where Nesbitt traveled to research her great-great grandmother, the nationally renown poet Eva O’Doherty, nicknamed “Eva of the Nation.” Bending time and space to understand the legacy of her ancestor, Nesbitt portrays seven different characters that cause her to collide with her own identity and personal challenges. Themes of duality, perception and creative expression fill the play with moments of discovery and surrender, juxtaposed with the comedy of human nature.

In addition to receiving the best documentary award, the play has been highly reviewed. In 2013, The Irish Voice wrote: “Nesbitt shows us how a nation in crisis, and a culture facing into dissolution, can flounder but eventually gather itself up, take stock, express its journey in words to make sense of itself and the road ahead. Nesbitt’s story is her ancestors’ story, and it’s Ireland’s story too. In Ireland it is said that we all live in each other’s shadow, and the truth is we all live in each other’s stories too.” (Read more at http://www.irishcentral.com/news/irishvoice/vivian-nesbitts-play-traces-her-ancestors-life-in-the-bark-and-the-tree-233649511-237790121.html#ixzz2srHku3uG).

“It’s an honor to be invited back to the United Solo Festival,” said Nesbitt. “The Bark & The Tree is a project that is incredibly dear to my heart, and I’m proud to be a third generation actor and woman over 50, still chasing my dream of entertaining, inspiring, and making a difference in the world.”
