From All the Unpaid U.S. Government Workers to U Donald Trump and 2 Your Mom...





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.
