Playing My Hand

Altarena Playhouse
1409 High Street Alameda

"I'm a poker player." Those are the words with which Rachel LePell introduces herself in Playing My Hand. Rachel had a loving family, a beautiful home, a successful career ... and a big secret. Traveling from the present into her past, this intimate and expansive play follows the ups and downs of the wild ride her penchant for poker has made of her life. At times humorous, at other times painful, this daring new show dives deep into a love affair with the thrill of winning. Catch this one-woman show, written and performed by Rachel LePell, at the Altarena Playhouse in Alameda.
