‘KING JAMES’ IS A PLAY OF MALE BONDING THROUGH A LOVE OF SPORTS

November 12, 2024 No Comments

Many men in the opening night audience were attracted to see “King James”, a two act play by Rajiv Joseph, running now through November 24 at GableStage in Coral Gables, because the title suggested the story would be about basketball superstar Lebron James and about the sport of basketball.

However, the play is neither about the life of James nor about the sport of basketball, but James and basketball loom large in the creation of the friendship between Matt (actor Gregg Weiner) and Shawn (Melvin Huffnagle). The premise of the introduction of Matt and Shawn in 2004 was initiated through Shawn wanting to buy a pair of tickets from Matt to see young rookie Lebron James play for his beloved hometown Cleveland Cavaliers.
