Photo Flash: First Look at Allen Nause and Vana O'Brien in Artists Rep's THE GIN GAME

Artists Rep will present The Gin Game by D.L. Coburn, starring Allen Nause and Vana O'Brien, directed by JoAnn Johnson. This two-person, two-act play is a 1978 Pulitzer Prize winner and garnered multiple Tony Award nominations both with its original 1977 production and the Broadway revival in 1997. This play replaces the originally planned production of The Invisible Hand by Ayad Akhtar. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the production below.

The production will feature veteran Artists Rep actors Allen Nause and Vana O'Brien. O'Brien is part of the theatre's Resident Acting Company and was one of the founding artists of Artists Rep. It was she who suggested Nause for the role of Artistic Director in 1988. Surprisingly, Nause and O'Brien have never appeared on Artists Rep's stage together. The Gin Game offers these actors and our audiences the exciting opportunity to perform alongside each other in a play they've both always yearned to do.
