NOT READY FOR RETIREMENT PLAYERS PRESENT
LOCAL PLAYWRIGHT PAUL CALANDRINO’S SHRIMP & GRITTS SEQUEL
By Rachael Carnes
t’s been a couple of years since Oregon
Contemporary
Theatre
premiered
Paul
Calandrino’s Shrimp & Gritts: She’s Gone. This
week, the Not Ready for Retirement Players will
offer audiences the sequel, Shrimp & Gritts: The
Long & Winding Trail.
The story picks up two years after the previous
play, set in the same fictitious Oregon beach town. (Who
are we kidding? It’s set in Yachats, in a bar very much
like the Drift Inn.)
“I love the insularity of the small Oregon towns,”
Calandrino says. “They serve as a perfect incubator for
the Oregon psyche in all its forms.”
So where are we since we left Yachats two years ago?
“Gritts’ girlfriend of 15 years, Serena, left him without
warning, and his best friend and drinking buddy Shrimp
admits that she’d been having a 15-year affair with
Serena,” Calandrino says.

Capitello Wines. Twinkly overhead lights cast a cheery
mood, and director Chris Pinto coaxes the actors to
tackle a scene one more time, to its emotionally charged
reveal.
“I was intrigued with the fight tonight — it took a
different tone,” Pinto says. “So I want to see that again.”
You couldn’t ask for two finer sparring partners than
William Campbell, in the role of Gritts, and Rebecca
Nachison, reprising her role as Shrimp.
“Having the opportunity to play Shrimp for another
time is a treat,” Nachison says.
Added to the mix are two new characters: Kandy
(Melanie Moser), the manager of the Sandraker Inn,
where all the play’s action takes place, and her newish
boyfriend, Breech (Benjamin Sanders).
“Kandy is working on a line of gourmet treats (or
amuse bouche) that she hopes to sell to a big food
conglomerate,” Calandrino says. “While Breech has his
mind set on building a scenic memorial trail along the

coastline on the north side of town.”
Calandrino says playwriting has always been a vehicle
for exploring the little obsessions that occupy his mind.
“For example, for many years my partner Cai
[Emmons] and I have discussed a phenomenon we call
‘the cult of the best,’” he says. “You know, these people
who are such aficionados on the best wines, the best
charcuterie, the best bathroom rugs, the best mantras.
The effeteness and snobbery of it all. It kind of drives
me crazy. People who mail order the best avocados from
South America to slice on their toast.”
Call it playwright’s revenge.
In this new play, there’s an entire scene called “Cult
of the Best” in which the characters — who are salt-of-
the-earth working class folks — explore the topic and
compare such things as “Parmigiano-Reggiano made
by blind eunuch monks in the Dolomites” with quarter-
pound burgers with cheese.
“But the main theme that I keep coming back to over
and over again, in Shrimp & Gritts and other plays, is
the impossible challenge and greatness of love and
relationships,” Calandrino says. “The play is no rom-
com, but there’s a lot about romance and love, and how
we break ourselves, and others, in the pursuit of them.”
And, he adds, “All of the characters are deeply in love
and make lousy decisions based on that.” ■
