West Coast Players Presents THE GIN GAME
By: Rebecca Russo
West Coast Players will present The Gin Game by D.L. Coburn, directed by Patrick Brafford, by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
In this Pulitzer Prize winning drama, a card game serves as a metaphor for life. Weller Martin is playing solitaire on the porch of a seedy nursing home. Enter Fonsia Dorsey, a prim, self-righteous lady. They discover they both dislike the home and enjoy gin rummy, so they begin to play and to reveal intimate details of their lives.
