In a Chicago junk shop, three men plot to rob a man of his coin collection, the showpiece of which is a valuable “Buffalo nickel.” These high-minded grifters fancy themselves businessmen pursuing legitimate free enterprise. But Donny, the oafish junk shop owner, Bobby, a young junkie Donny has taken under his wing, and “Teach,” a violently paranoid braggart, are merely pawns caught up in their own game of last-chance, dead-end, empty pipe dreams. Please note that this play contains strong language and is NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN.
Opening night is on Friday February 28th and continues for three weekends until March 15th. Show times are 8:00 pm with one matinee on Sunday March 9 at 2:00 pm.
