Main stage productions from the 2008/2009 Season:

From the spring of 2009

The Man Who Came to Dinner  by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart

Performances were Fri - Sun, April 24, 25 & 26, 2009.

The Man Who Came to Dinner is a comedy in three acts. It debuted on October 16, 1939 at the Music Box Theatre in New York City. It then enjoyed a number of New York and London revivals.  The play is set in the small town of Mesalia, Ohio in the weeks leading to Christmas in the 1930s. The exposition reveals that the famously outlandish radio wit Sheridan Whiteside of New York City was invited to dine at the house of rich factory owner Ernest W. Stanley and his family. Whiteside slips and falls on their front steps, breaking his hip and is forced to recuperate in their house. He immediately takes over the entire household and with a combination of threats, intimidation, and wit, he exiles the Stanleys to the second floor.  He holds court in the living room for his wide circle of friends, runs up staggering long-distance bills to world leaders, monopolizes the Stanley servants, and populates the house with a menagerie of exotic animals. Unfortunately for the demanding Whiteside, Maggie Cutler, his trusted secretary and indispensable girl Friday, has fallen in love with a local newspaper man. Although he is pronounced well and free to leave by the local doctor, Sherry feigns his infirmity in order to find away to keep Maggie with him.
