It’s easy to root for them and cheer.”

SYNOPSIS
Bridge was once the second-most popular pastime in America behind only baseball. But now, only 50 years later, it teeters on the brink of extinction.
In THE KIDS TABLE, an engaging feature-length documentary from director Edd Benda, four millennial friends – filmmaker Benda, comedian Monique Thomas, Twitch host Stefanie Woodburn and actor Paul Stanko – bridge novices all, train and compete for a year on the National Bridge Circuit, going behind-the-scenes to better understand the game and its waning popularity. And as the millennials explore the world of competitive Bridge — where the average age of their opponents is 73 – they discover the highs and lows of card-play, competition, and community while, hopefully, helping to build a strong foundation for the future of the game.
THE KIDS TABLE, from Beyond the Porch Productions and the ACBL Educational Foundation, recently enjoyed a well-received World Premiere during the 2019 North American Bridge Championships in Las Vegas.
