The Empty Nesters
Written by Garrett Jon Groenveld, Directed by Richard Seyd
Helicopter parents face the question of what they want to be when their kids grow up, in a new comedy-drama by award-winning playwright Garret Jon Groenveld. This warm and witty look at an uber-couple who drop their youngest child off at college and then take what may be a life-changing trip to the Sky Walk at the Grand Canyon, is helmed by veteran Bay Area director Richard Seyd, and stars real-life empty nesters John Walker and Pamela Gaye Walker, who reunite on stage after a 20 year hiatus.
John Walker is a film producer (The Incredibles, Tomorrowland, The Iron Giant) and actor, whose extensive theatre background includes 40 stage productions with his wife. Pamela Gaye Walker is an award-winning actress who has appeared in film, television, and on stages across the country.
"There's a big payoff. Warmth and compassion. Abundant humor."
—Chad Jones, TheatreDogs
