San Francisco Playhouse will present the West Coast Premiere of Candrice Jones’ Flex, directed by Bay Area theatre titan and Lorraine Hansberry Theatre artistic director Margo Hall. This action-packed new play set in 1998 spotlights the Lady Train high school basketball team in Plainnole, Arkansas. Following the recent formation of the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), the players dream of going pro. First, they must face the pressures of being young, Black, and female in the rural South as setbacks on and off the court threaten to break the team apart.
