USA: Oye! Times readers Get FREE $30 to spend on Amazon, Walmart…The Gamester: A Sexy French Comedy
Theatre 40 at the Reuben Cordova Theatre (Beverly Hills, CA)
Too much wealth, too much sex and too much glitz and glamor. Sound familiar? Some people might think we’re talking about 21st-century America — but in this case, it’s 18th-century Paris. Jean François Regnard’s The Gamester is a sexy farce about a compulsive gambler who struggles between his affection for the woman he loves and his passion for games of chance. The characters in the play, many of them suffering from their own compulsions for sex, love, money, food or self-righteousness, wouldn’t be out of place in contemporary society. The Gamester reminds us in humorous fashion that some things never change.
