Carolina dramatic art alumna Bekah Brunstetter is not a video game aficionado. Yet she has now written not one, but two plays, about the ways that video games can hinder or facilitate human connection.
“The Game” is currently having its world premiere at PlayMakers Repertory Company at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Brunstetter spoke over a video call about “The Game” the day after its final dress rehearsal at Playmakers. She discussed the two plays, her learning curve and the TV show that might lure her back into the world of gaming.
