ROUNDING THIRD To Be Performed At Eichelberger Loft 3/11/10
by BWW News Desk - Mar 11, 2010


Richard Dresser's Rounding Third will be performed March 11, 2010 - March 28, 2010. What better way to celebrate spring than the crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd, and two Little League coaches going head to head in what has to be the only baseball play to include Brigadoon, living in a van, and the fine art of equipment bag stuffing. Baseball buff Don, for whom winning is the only thing, is stuck with assistant coach Michael, who wants trophies for everyone, and whose only youth sport was, uh, well, curling. In Canada. The result is an exploding scoreboard worth of laughs.
