Event Description: Written by A.R. Gurney, The Dining Room is a brilliantly conceived and richly humorous theatrical tour de force (and Off-Broadway success) in which the performers portray a wide array of diverse characters. The action is comprised of a mosaic of interrelated scenes—some funny, some touching, some rueful. Each vignette introduces a new set of people and events; a father lectures his son on grammar and politics; a boy returns from boarding school to discover his mother’s infidelity; a senile grandmother doesn’t recognize her own sons at Christmas dinner; a daughter, her marriage a shambles, pleads futilely to return home, etc. Dovetailing swiftly and smoothly, the varied scenes coalesce, ultimately, into a theatrical experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor and abundant humanity. Free to Daytona State College and Volusia and Flagler county students, all others $8 per person or $15 for two. DSC News-Journal Center, Gillespy Theater 221 N.
