Ron Milner’s 'Checkmates' arrived at the 46th Street Theatre in 1988, standing as an absolute monument in modern American cultural history as the official, historic Broadway dramatic debut of future Academy Award icon Denzel Washington. The textually rich comedy-drama explores the changing values and socio-economic fractures of Black life by tracking two African-American couples who reside inside the same duplex apartment building—one an older, stable WWII-era veteran couple, the other a hyper-ambitious, upwardly mobile young yuppie couple navigating corporate marital strains. Directed by Woodie King Jr., the historic production co-starred theater royalty Ruby Dee and Paul Winfield.
