The hockey career of a future enforcer or goon is founded by a violent tantrum after missing an open net. FIVE MINUTE MAJOR is an amazingly sustained monologue from Bugsy Morano told in real time. From the penalty box. Brawling has long been the ruin of professional hockey, and here are some insights from Mike Byham and his player-confessor into the thinking of the powers that be and the bloodthirsty fans that keep it going well beyond the hockey arena. Pro hockey could be played as they do in college or the Olympics with no tolerance for fighting.

This play offers a compelling glimpse into the gritty world of professional hockey, providing audiences with a thought-provoking exploration of its characters and themes. Through the character of Bugsy Murano, the play delves into the moral dilemmas and intense pressures faced by athletes in pursuit of success. With its raw honesty and gripping storytelling, it is a must-watch for anyone intrigued by the complexities of sports and human nature.

Wow! Talk about an emotionally gripping play. From the opening voice overs to the end of Bugsy's monologue, you will be on the edge of your seat. This would be a dream role for any actor and an absolute delight for any audience. Well done!
