After thirty years of marriage, a man tells his wife that he is going to leave her. When she fails to respond to his outburst, he leaves the room. When he returns, he again declares that he is leaving her. When this attempt also proves unsuccessful he leaves the room, only to return and try for a third time to leave his wife. Thus begins Marriage Play, a look at the troubled marriage of Jack and Gillian. Through verbal and physical battles, the pair explore their life together and the institution of marriage.
