This is a make-believe true story, told through the lens of a man blessed and cursed with once-in-a generation literary talent. The true part is that the narrative is based on the life and death of renowned writer David Foster Wallace (DFW). In this play, the writer is named Dave—an artist who staggers through time, sharing his origin story and pitfalls. Dave revels in the game of tennis, and glorifies the personification of tennis perfection that is the legendary Roger Federer. That last part is true, too.
