The White Chip

Steven, a prolific director and rising star in the American theatre, has built a life that looks enviable from the outside. But beneath it, he is struggling to balance professional success, family, and an addiction that is spinning out of control. When he can no longer disguise his alcoholism with charm, talent, and artistic productivity, he is forced to confront the wreckage it has caused and begin the long work of rebuilding. Inventive, funny, and unflinching, The White Chip is Sean Daniels’ autobiographical play about what it means to rebuild a life after you have burned it down. For the first time, Daniels will also direct his “witty, fizzy” ( New York Theatre Guide ) hit play, bringing a new level of personal perspective to the story.
