One Last Dance was recently performed as part of Walden Theatre's Annual Young Playwrights Festival. This play has its roots in my desire to write a play about myself and a friend, it grew beyond that when I decided to adapt a conversation JC had with one of his friends. That project and this one ended up merging together, resulting in this piece of which I am immensely proud.
In One Last Dance, Mr. Jackson brings a young man and a young woman to the outside steps of a party where they talk about who they love. It’s clear these two care about each other, trusting each other with their emotions, and there’s a sense that each of them, at different times, could be describing the other as the one they love. The twist at the end – as to who actually loves whom – was crafted effectively. ~~Kathie Ellis
