Pandemic Players: The Gin Game
The Schoolhouse Theater’s Pandemic Players’ weekly (impromptu) virtual play readings continue with this presentation of DL Coburn’s 1978 Pulitzer Prize winning play The Gin Game. This two person play follows the relationship of two residents of a nursing home as one teaches the other how to play Gin Rummy. As the student racks up win after win, they begin to share stories of their life which turn into battles, much like the gin games, as they vie to belittle and humiliate each other. The Broadway production and its revivals has paired Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn, E.G. Marshall and Maureen Stapleton, Charles Durning and Julie Harris and James Earl Jones and Cicely Tyson.
