Line of Scrimmage is a dance, theater, comedy, football game that fumbles its way through a classic (and yet maybe not so classic) sports movie narrative. The show follows a team from practice up until the big game. We ask the questions: Who gets to tackle whom? And who gets to create separation and division on and off the field? In general, the show attempts a Hail Mary pass at critiquing the good and the not-so-good of sports and sports culture. Expect balls flying, kickers punting, and false starts at an all-time high. Oh yeah, and I heard the marching band is good this year.
