  • "A play quick with life, pungent in dialogue and characterization, stirring and comic." --Sun

Description

People are inclined to laugh at Joe, a moody young Italian with "cockeyed" notions. At heart a musician -- he has a real talent for the violin -- he longs to be "top man" in some other field. So he goes into the prizefighting racket and becomes surprisingly good at it. In each fight he becomes more and more brutish and finally in a big match he kills his opponent.
