Open-Door Playhouse continues to present short plays in podcast form. The Playhouse is presenting a new play, Chess Master, starting September 18, 2024 online at http://opendoorplayhouse.org

Set in 1865, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, Chess Master tells the story of a confrontation between a defiant plantation owner and a newly freed slave. The owner, desperately clinging to the old order, attempts to coerce his former servant into staying on as an unpaid laborer---a potent allegory for the continuing struggle to create a truly free society.

The cast includes Tim Powell, Tezz Yancey, and Dennis Gersten.. Gersten directs.

Braddon Mendelson is the playwright.

Ages: 12 to Adult
