The Gin Game - A Staged Reading

This Pulitzer Prize Award winning play uses the card game as a metaphor for life. As an aging couple in a seedy nursing home play the game, the intimacies of their pasts spill forth like the cards from the deck as they reach out to make some sense of their damaged lives. By Donald L. Coburn. Featuring M.Lynda Robinson and Richard McElvain.
