An American chess master returns home for a defining emotional match with his challenging and unpredictable father, who years ago coached him to success. A taut, true and ultimately forgiving play about the negotiations we all make as parents and children, this intricate drama beautifully delineates the complexity that exists within the strict boundaries of a chessboard or a family. "An interesting mind bender that examines the love-hate relationship that a father and son have with each other and with the war game that defines them." -Jan Nargi, broadwayworld.com
