[Capdist-announce] Michael Garfield Levine’s “Spinning My Wheels” Comes to Catskill March 24-26

[Steven Patterson]

Show #3 in Bridge Street Theatre’s 2023 SoloFest delivers both terrifying
lows and dizzying highs in an autobiographical tale of addiction, mental
illness, and ultimate triumph. “Spinning My Wheels”, written and performed
by Michael Garfield Levine and directed by Catilin Langstaff, hits the
stage at 44 West Bridge Street in Catskill for three performances only –
Friday and Saturday March 24 and 25 at 7:30pm and Sunday March 26 at
2:00pm.

This brutally honest, often harrowing, and sometimes funny roller coaster
of a ride takes us from the 1970s streets and theaters of New York to the
hills of Vermont and into the depths of Michael’s psyche as he struggles to
crawl out from under the long shadow cast by his WWII-Veteran father.
Clawing his way back to sanity through bicycle racing and a life-long
acting career, he encounters an Olympian, a Zen Master, a Holocaust
survivor, a meditation teacher who later becomes his wife, and a host of
other masterful (and occasionally unsavory) characters.

A native New Yorker, Michael Garfield Levine has worked in theatre at the
Champlain Shakespeare Festival, Portland Stage Company, and Virginia Stage
Company, appeared in film and television (“Law and Order”, “The Sopranos”,
daytime dramas), studied at The Neighborhood Playhouse, and was an original
member of The Circle Repertory Lab. He has also made many commercials and
done voice-overs for television and radio. He raced bicycles for 30 years,
competing alongside National Champions, Olympians, and Tour de France
winners. Michael drove a NYC taxicab for five years and lived to tell about
it. He currently resides in The Hudson Valley where he writes and rides.
“Spinning My Wheels” was originally developed in Melinda Buckley’s One Up!
Solo Workshop and in Seth Barrish’s Solo-Show Performance Class at The
Barrow Group.

Individual tickets for “Spinning My Wheels” are $25 at the door, $22 if
