Celebrated psychoanalyst and author Dr Margaret Ford has a new client. Billy needs help: he’s addicted to sex, drugs and, most dangerously, gambling big money at an illicit poker lounge, the House of Games. Dr Ford also happens to be in search of subject matter for her next best-seller - a search which takes her deep into Chicago’s underworld and into the path of Mike, a charismatic gambler. A complex game commences, in which even the players themselves don’t know the rules, their roles, or who will be left holding the trump card...

This gripping adaptation of David Mamet’s noir thriller comes from celebrated playwright Richard Bean, who returns to Hampstead following Reykjavik, To Have and To Hold and Kiss Me.

Director Jonathan Kent also returns to Hampstead where his productions have included Double Feature, Good People and The Forest.
