The Dining Room
by AR Gurney
directed by Stacy Kessler

Performance Dates: July 25 – August 17
Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30PM, Sunday matinees at 2PM

Location: Bowie Community Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse

Constructed as a series of interrelated vignettes all taking place in the dining room of a well-to-do household, the play takes an in-depth look at the lives of a vanishing species: the upper-class WASP. The ensemble cast has actors changing roles, personalities, and ages as they portray a slice-of-life view from many different families. The varied scenes dovetail and coalesce into a theatrical experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor, and abundant humanity.

James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim take everyone’s favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece… and a rare modern classic.

The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King’s Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.

Tickets for shows at Bowie Playhouse are $29.00 for General Admission, $26.00 for seniors (60 and over), military and full time students, and $18 for Children 11 and under. Buy tickets here.
