Two men have a conversation at an all-night coffee shop over a game of chess. One of them is having a life crisis, the other is trying to avoid one he already had.

"Beginner's Luck" is a drama in one act. It's been performed twice on stage: first as a part of PCC's yearly festival of one-act plays, and second as staged reading at Coho Theatre in Portland during Sharon Sassone's Portland Dramatists Workshop retrospective.

The play itself is always in some state of revision. This is the one play I may look back at every year or so and make some major change to.

I'll soon add cast lists and information on the previous productions...
