Rhode Island Premiere
October 21-November 21, 2010
Mom has died, leaving half-sisters Mary and Jackie with a rare stamp collection. Mary wants to keep it for its
sentimental value. Jackie wants to sell it for the fortune it might be worth. Enter three foul-talking shady stamp dealers
determined to get the sale, and an elaborate con game over the dubious inheritance unfolds. At once a gripping
family drama and a delightfully sinister comedy, veteran playwright Rebeck’s 2007 Broadway hit twists and turns and
takes you for a ride until its final shocking scene. |
