On Stage: Theatre
The Gin Game
Cape May Stage, 405 Lafayette Street, Cape May
This Pulitizer Prize winner
takes place on the porch of a
retirement home where iras-
cible Weller Martin meets
the prim, self-righteous Fon-
sia Dosey. Fonsia wins every
game and their secrets be-
come weapons used against
each other. “The New York
Times” called the play “a
thoroughly entertaining les-
son in the fine art of theatri-
cal finesse. The closest thing
the theatre offers to a duel at
10 paces.” It is a funny, intelli-
gent play that will touch your
heart even as you laugh at the
characters foibles.
Presented August 9 through
September 22.
