‘Cashed Out,’ by American Indian playwright Claude Jackson Jr. gets world premiere at S.F. Playhouse.
“Cashed Out,” the new play at San Francisco Playhouse, is about Rocky, a woman struggling with gambling addiction, and the effect it has on her family.
“Native Voices at the Autry in Los Angeles called for short plays, and they had a little contest,” Jackson says. “The theme then was tribal gaming. Ironically, I’m a product myself of tribal gaming. I was able to go to law school because of my tribe’s gaming interests funding my law school.” “I just love how it’s so reflective of so many lived realities for Native people,” says director Tara Moses, who’s also a playwright and a citizen of Seminole Nation of Oklahoma and of Mvskoke descent. “And not just Native people. I also love that this play is set on a reservation and there’s not any conversation about the reservation’s lack of resources. It’s set with people who want to be there, where it’s rich and robust.
