"The Dining Room"
By A. R. Gurney

Directed by Benjamin Gavitt

THE STORY: The play is set in the dining room of a typical well-to-do
household, the place where the family assembled daily for breakfast and
dinner and for any and all special occasions. The action is comprised of a
mosaic of interrelated scenes-some funny, some touching, some rueful-which,
taken together, create an in-depth portrait of a vanishing species: the
upper-middle-class WASP. The actors change roles, personalities and ages
with virtuoso skill as they portray a wide variety of characters, from
little boys to stern grandfathers, and from giggling teenage girls to Irish
housemaids. Each vignette introduces a new set of people and events; a
father lectures his son on grammar and politics; a boy returns from boarding
school to discover his mother's infidelity; a senile grandmother doesn't
recognize her own sons at Christmas dinner; a daughter, her marriage a
shambles, pleads futilely to return home, etc. Dovetailing swiftly and
smoothly, the varied scenes coalesce, ultimately, into a theatrical
experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor and abundant humanity.

Featuring: Andrea Anderson, Tammy Carder, Ron Church, Kathleen Ferris, Mary
Durkin, Adam Leventhal, Susan Rusinoff & Kyle Thomas
