100 Words - Christopher Gurr

Christopher Gurr, a laborer in the fields of theatre, spent the last three and three quarters years on the road with Monty Python’s Spamalot. He can’t wait to get back out there.

ON THE ROAD

Being on the road. I recommend it.

It is not the same thing as traveling (which I also recommend) or vacationing (with which I have little experience) or going on a retreat (which sounds lovely — someday I must try it). Most importantly, it is not the constraint of having to work somewhere other than near your home. The state of being on the road with which I have fallen so deeply in love requires that one not have a home. Other than the road. That’s my best advice. Also, set your GPS to avoid highways and u-turns. Trust me.
