Despite spending more time drunk than sober, Steven McAlister has
managed to graduate from college, create an extremely successful
theater group, get married, and thrive in a dream job at one of the most
prestigious regional theaters in the United States. Sure, it's gratifying
to go to an AA meeting where they reward you with a white chip just
for showing up, but does he really have a problem? Even with an ailing
father, a marriage on the rocks, and his professional life careening out
of control, Steven has a carefully constructed balancing act that keeps
it all together-until it all falls apart. Told with humor, honesty, and
compassion, THE WHITE CHIP is about living with addiction and
coming alive through recovery.
