Door County Library’s Play Reading Club in collaboration with discussion leader, Jacob Janssen, of Third Avenue PlayWorks, with host a special meeting at the Kress Pavilion as part of the Door Kinetic Arts Festival. Author, Eric Simonson, will join in a talk about his hit Broadway play “Lombardi,” based on the biography by David Maraniss “When pride still mattered: a life of Vince Lombardi.”
Sport produces great human drama and there is no greater sports icon to bring to theatrical life than Hall of Fame football coach Vince Lombardi, unquestionably one of the most inspirational and quotable personalities of all time. Though football’s Super Bowl trophy is named for him, few know the real story of Lombardi the man—his inspirations, his passions and ability to drive people to achieve what they never thought possible.
Copies of the play are available for checkout at the Sturgeon Bay Library, or call Laura at 920-746-7121 for a digital copy.
This event is free to the public and does not require purchase of a ticket or festival pass.
