In The Gin Game, Weller Martin and Fonsia Dorsey engage in multiple games of gin runny. They live in a run down nursing home, and they hate it. The games of gin rummy, however, becomes a life metaphor as they reveal more intimate details about each other.
The Gin Game cast includes Matt Orme as Weller Martin and Liz Vissing as Fonsia Dorsey. Juergen K. Tossman directed the production.
Following The Gin Game, Bunbury Theatre will present Southern Exposure. The production will go on in April.
