Black Curtain Theatre: The White ChipBy Sean Daniels

A Dry Comedy About Drying Out

September 26 & 27, 2026 Sat and Sun 7:30pm and Sun 2:00pm $12 adults, $10 students

Despite spending more time drunk than sober, Steven McAlister has managed to graduate from college, create an extremely successful theater group, get married, and thrive in a dream job at one of the most prestigious regional theaters in the United States. Sure, it’s gratifying to go to an AA meeting where they reward you with a white chip just for showing up, but does he really have a problem? Even with an ailing father, a marriage on the rocks and his professional life careening out of control, Steven has constructed a careful balancing act that keeps it all together – until it all falls apart. A dark comedy told with humor, honesty and compassion, The White Chip is a deeply relatable look at addiction and how sometimes hitting rock bottom might be the best shot at recovery.
