Chad Harbach Quotes
Locker Rooms, In Schwartz's Experience, Were Always Underground, Like Bunkers And Bomb Shelters. This Was Less A Structural Necessity Than A Symbolic One. The Locker Room Protected You When You Were Most Vulnerable: Just Before A Game, And Just After (And Halfway Through, If The Game Was Football) Before The Game, You Took Off The Uniform You Wore To Face The World And You Put On The One You Wore To Face Your Opponent. In Between You Were Naked In Every Way. After The Game Ended, You Couldn't Carry Your Game-time Emotions Out Into The World - You'd Be Put In An Asylum If You Did - So You Went Underground And Purged Them. You Yelled And Threw Things And Pounded On Your Locker, In Anguish Or Joy. You Hugged Your Teammate, Or Bitched Him Out, Or Punched Him In The Face. Whatever Happened, The Locker Room Remained A Haven.
