About the play
Performed in four fifteen-minute quarters with a half-time show, featuring a dance company, band, and a fully-padded cast, Colossal is an epic event that simultaneously celebrates and attacks our nation's most popular form of theater: football. A star football player – a pro prospect, one of the most graceful runners in the world, and a man in love with a teammate – struggles to move forward in the wake of a catastrophic spinal cord injury. With full-contact choreography, this play about love, ability, and extraordinary feats of strength, tackles definitions of masculinity and the male body as vehicles for language, violence, and silent expression through dance, football, and disability.
