Windham Theatre Guild Opens THE DINING ROOM Next Week  Image

Tina Huey makes her WTG directorial debut with this popular A.R. Gurney play that revolves around the dining room. The cast features ten actors portraying a variety of characters of all ages in a series of vignettes. You will see some familiar faces-Kerin Griffin, Jose Hernandez, Ken Noll, Becky Salustri and Steven Tucker-as well as some new faces-Emily Foust, Katherine Foust, Ed Lewis, Rachel Lyon and Amy Polek.

One of A.R. Gurney's most eloquent plays, this classic from 1981 looks at American life and WASP culture by way of the dining room. Gurney's funny, touching, and thought-provoking vignettes invite the audience to see themselves and their families on stage. Should we go back to life revolving around the dining room table, or has the room become a relic? In "giving up" on dining rooms, what else are we losing? The Dining Room asks us to think about the roles of tradition and family in our modern lives, encouraging the audience to look at a possibly antiquated room in a new light.

Adults $19 Students/Seniors $16 Children under 12 $12

UCONN/ECSU/QVCC Students $14 (with ID)
