An Interview with Mike Vigilant
Mike Vigilant really had no idea what he was in for when he undertook writing a play about the life of legendary Alabama football coach Paul "Bear" Bryant. He soon found himself immersed in a daunting quest to make sense of a semi-mythic figure whom everyone seemed to have a strong opinion about.Yet, what he discovered months of research was a complex man who embodied many of the ideals we all strive to realize in our lives. His play, Bear Country proved to be a smash hit for the Alabama Shakespeare Festival last January and is being presented for a month-long run in Birmingham.
My interview with Vigilant, A QnA with Bear Country Author Mike Vigilant, is over at Roll Bama' Roll.
