Table 17 at Geffen Playhouse

Dates: 11/5/2025 - 12/7/2025

📍 Theatre: Geffen Playhouse


In the West Coast premiere of Table 17, Jada and Dallas, former fiancés, reunite for dinner to confront their shared past. As they navigate the complexities of old wounds and lingering chemistry, a seemingly casual meeting transforms into an unexpected exploration of romance and second chances. Written by Douglas Lyons and directed by Zhailon Levingston, the play features performances by Gail Bean, Biko Eisen-Martin, and Michael Rishawn. The production runs from November 5 to December 7, 2025, at the Geffen Playhouse.

Review: TABLE 17 at Geffen Playhouse
November 16, 2025 The fervor of a given audience – kind of its own character in this play - probably helps distract from the fact that, its sweet vibes aside, there’s not a lot of there in Lyons’ play. It’s a good time, but it’s light as a spritz of air freshener.
