"Harrowing stuff". -- CBC Radio Questions of authority, social and personal responsibility all come to the forefront in Guy Vanderhaeghe's play Dancock's Dance. Taking place during the influenza epidemic of 1918, and during the ruin and chaos of the First World War, Guy Vanderhaeghe, winner of the Governor General's Award for fiction for Man Descending and the Canadian Author's Association Award for Drama, transforms these world events so they resonate through the locked doors and barred windows of an insane asylum.
