The White Chip is a semi-autobiographical sharp-witted comedy written by Sean Daniels, directed by Marin Theatre Executive Artistic Director Lance Gardner. The play follows Steven, a successful theatre director whose promising career is increasingly overshadowed by his struggle with alcoholism, and his first steps toward recovery by claiming Alcoholics Anonymous' white chip. Benjamin Clark makes his Marin Theatre debut as Steven, with Danny Scheie and Lyndsy Kail rounding out the cast. The production features scenic design by Christopher Fitzer, costume design by Callie Floor, lighting design by Spense Matubang, and sound design by George Psarras.
