THE DINING ROOM - Overview
written by A.R. Gurney
directed by Megan Bell
performed May 10-11 and 16-18, 2002

The Dining Room, by A.R. Gurney is an engaging set of 18 vignettes tracing the history of a single room from one generation to the next. The show is a series of snapshots built around Gurney's vision of the disintegration of the upper white middle class. The people within the dining room and its story change, and create an interesting insight into the story of the American family. Written for a cast of 6 - but in this instance done with 8 - this show provides the actors the opportunity to play many different roles apiece.
