Summaries

Just released from prison, Max Washington must decide which of his previous professions to return to: burglary or tap-dancing.

Max Washington has just been released from prison after serving time for burglary. He returns to his old hangout, a hoofer (tap-dancer) club. His former girlfriend Amy, who still works at the club as a tap instructor, is less than thrilled to see him. Her father, Little Mo, is happy to see him, because he has plans for a show involving Max. In addition, Max's old partners in crime have another job they want him to do.—Brian W Martz <[email protected]>
