Description
The Kirk Players launch its 57th season with The Dining Room by A. R. Gurney. The play consists of 18 vignettes set in different eras of the 20th century, all taking place around a dining room table. The mosaic of scenes touches on such subjects as family values, women’s education, love, vanishing customs, and betrayal, among many others. Some scenes are funny, others serious, still others rueful or reflective. The 58 different roles in the play present a challenge to the 15 cast members, each of whom plays several different roles, which, taken together, paint a picture of characters you may recognize, portrayed through The Dining Room.
In keeping with the KP mission of giving back to the community, all proceeds from the Saturday, September 17, performance will be donated to the Northern Illinois Food Bank, which services the 13 counties of Northern Illinois, including Lake County. Come enjoy the performance, support the arts, and help your hungry neighbors.Tell a Friend
