Event Description

The winner of the 1978 Pulitzer Prize, which originally starred Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn and later revived with Julie Harris and Charles Durning, uses a game 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.

“A thoroughly entertaining lesson in the fine art of theatrical finesse. The closest thing the theatre offers to a duel at 10 paces.”–The New York Times

“Extremely intelligent..fine bittersweet comedy…Funny, sad, profane, eloquent, touching, beautiful.”-WABC-TV

“Perfect…A vibrant study on loneliness, disillusion, old age and death yet fiercely funny.”-The Boston Globe
