The presentation of Pulitzer Prize-winning theatre continues with the opening of Donald Margulies’ acclaimed DINNER WITH FRIENDS at the Repertory East Playhouse on Friday, May 8.
DINNER WITH FRIENDS follows Karen and Gabe, who played matchmaker with their friends Beth and Tom. Ever since, the two couples have been inseparable—going to the Vineyard every summer, raising their kids and enjoying countless dinners together. But when one marriage unexpectedly crumbles, the couples’ lives begin to veer in opposite directions. Can these four friends move on to the next chapter without moving apart or have they changed beyond recognition?
Bringing this comedy/drama to life under the direction of Brad Sergi are REP favorites Leslie Connelly, Dennis Hadley, Jack Impellizzeri and Nancy Lantis.
“Margulies depicts the vagaries of spousal relationships with humor and pathos in an insightful manner that will undoubtedly spur meaningful conversations between couples upon returning home.” – Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter 2014, writing about an Off-Broadway revival of the show.
The winner of the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, DINNER WITH FRIENDS has been rated REP-MA, for mature audiences. It may not be appropriate for young children.
DINNER WITH FRIENDS will run May 8 through June 6. Show times are Friday and Saturdays at 8:00 pm and Sundays at 2:00 pm. Tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for students and seniors.
