Summary/Abstract: The Price of Gold is an emotional play-testimony about the coming of age of a child who grew up dreaming of becoming a sports dance champion. A child for whom the bodies of the dancers he watched represented both rigor, discipline, freedom and courage. "The Price of Gold" is a vulnerable confession in which memories from the dance hall, from trainings and camps become a subjective map of detachment from formative moments. Remembrance is a transformative act, which gives fragility the power to move forward.
