Bridge to Nowhere

What: Adam Parrish is showcasing his new play at AS220 until Saturday night. A description of it reads: "Bruce Avery and Spencer Townsend are among the top professional bridge players in the country.

Bridge to Nowhere is a two-person play that tracks the progression of their bridge partnership. Will opposites attract, or is it doomed from the beginning?"
