Set in the South in 1945 after WWII, Wray Edmond, a Black soldier returns home in pursuit of a better life for his family and purchases a Casino after being denied the benefits of the G.I. Bill.
The story of the struggles face by one black soldier and his family is told in the groundbreaking play AT ALL COST.
