| | DINNER WITH FRIENDS
Written by Donald Margulies
Directed by Carl Jordan
Executive Producer - Oberlin Charitable Trust

Dinner with Friends is a drama with comedic undertones, Donald Margulies’ Dinner with Friends will leave you thinking about friendship, love, and marriage long after the curtain closes. A winner of the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Dinner with Friends navigates the crazy maze of marriage with wit, wisdom, and pathos. It’s the story of two couples, life-long friends, grappling with a profound change in one half of their foursome. As the New York Times says, Dinner with Friends “is wry and keenly observed and bathed in the unspoken sorrow that can creep up on you in middle age.” | Buy tickets |
| | GUYS AND DOLLS
Music and lyrics by Frank Loesser, Book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows
Directed by Larry Williams
Music Director: Sherrill Peterson
Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI)
Considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy, Guys and Dolls ran for 1,200 performances when it opened on Broadway in 1950. Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler Nathan Detroit tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler Sky Masterson for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary Sarah Brown. As a result. Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong. Frank Loesser's brassy, immortal score makes Guys and Dolls a crowd-pleaser. | Buy tickets |
