By Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman and directed by Joe Theissen, THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER is about SheriDan Whiteside, theatre critic, lecturer, and radio personality, who arrives for dinner at the home of the prominent Stanley family, slips on their doorstep and injures his hip. A tumultuous six weeks of confinement follow with Whiteside monopolizing the living room, inviting ex-convicts to meals and storing penguins in the library! Before it's over, the outrageous has become commonplace. Show Sponsor: Lakewood Center Associates.
