Synopsis: On the anniversary of their victory in the Pennsylvania state championship game, four members of the starting lineup of a small-town Catholic high school basketball team gather with their coach to re-live their youthful glory.

Broadway Reviews

NEW YORK TIMES REVIEW:

"“That Championship Season,” Jason Miller’s portrait of morally bankrupt men remembering their glory days as a high-school basketball team, was never what you would call a shy play. Like its liquored-up, confession-prone characters, this award-laden 1972 drama states its intentions loudly, repeatedly and often embarrassingly. "

USA TODAY REVIEW:

"In Jason Miller's 1972 play That Championship Season, four former high school basketball teammates reunite 20 years later in their old coach's home. As the liquor flows, conversation turns to the jobs and relationships, concerns and frustrations that have defined — and linked — their adult lives."

HOLLYWOOD REPORTER REVIEW:

"A drama about the bitter recriminations of a generation of men stung by the reality of their diminished promise and feeling let down by both their leaders and their peers should strike chords in this rudderless age of epidemic disillusionment."

AM NEW YORK REVIEW:

"“That Championship Season,” Jason Miller’s drama about former high school athletes making drunken confessions in front of their coach, might have been genuinely shocking when it premiered in 1972 at the Public Theater. It successfully transferred to Broadway and even won a Pulitzer Prize."

NEW JERSEY NEWSROOM REVIEW:
