THE DINING ROOM runs March 9-18

THE DINING ROOM
Presented by Lebanon Theatre Company
March 9-18
Lebanon

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 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 housemades. Each vignette introduces a new set of people and events. Dovetailing swiftly and smoothly, the varied scenes coalesce, ultimately, into a theatrical experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor and abundant humanity.

Directed by Steven Haines

Cast: Marilyn Carter, Wayne Dunn, Kent Hutchinson, Sandra Carey McCoy, Katelyn Ferguson, Karen Oehler, Elliott Sheridan, Brian Smith, Rebecca Smith, Rob Strawser, Paula J. Whitaker & Cindy Wilmes
