The first play I saw in New York in 1978 was the Gin Game with Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn, that famous husband and wife acting team.
The one line I remember most is the punch line at the end of one act in which Jessica retorts to the verbal cruelty of her temporary Gin partner in I think an old age home.
The line is a popular Russsian Curse трахни свою маму that roughly translates into English as "F**k your mother"! Well acted Jessica.
