Dancing in the End-Zone
by Bill C Davis
What readers are saying
Readers have mixed feelings about the play, with one mentioning a lack of lasting impression. While there are some enjoyable elements, the overall impact seems to fade quickly after viewing.
Synopsis
This drama by the author of Mass Appeal explores the heart of a young man in crisis, inflamed by the people who claim to care for him: his mother, his football coach and his tutor.
James Bernard is a star college quarterback whose innocence renders him devastatingly vulnerable.
His mother and coach are pushing him to go "professional"; his tutor is concerned over the inherent corruption of organized athletics, believing that football is just another metaphor for war.
Press Reviews
"A thoroughly commendable play...A solid piece of work [with]...taut, provocative scenes."
— Wall Street Journal
