Stepping Out, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department
1989-1990 Season
Stepping Out is a play written by Richard Harris in 1984. The play concerns eight individuals from disparate backgrounds and with differing motivations who attend the same weekly tap dancing class in a dingy North London church hall. Despite the students at first treating the classes as social occasions, and showing little co-ordination, they later develop a level of skill and cohesiveness. The dance routines are the background for the focus of the play, the relationship and interaction of different people.
