SUPREME BEINGS
WRITTEN BY MO GAFFNEY AND KATHY NAJIMY

Two supreme beings plan the beginning of the world with the relish of
two slightly sadistic suburban wives decorating a living room.
A FORTUNE COOKIE

Those little slips of paper you get inside fortune cookies at Chinese restaurants seem innocent enough,
but when they start coming true on the spot, all hell breaks loose!

ATOMS AND EXPLODED STARS

THE SEQUEL**
BY PERCIVAL WILDE

YESTERDAY**
BY COLIN CLEMENT CAMPBELL
Two strangers discuss their lives and find that they may have more in common than they had thought.
THE EVILS OF DRINK **
BY GREG PRATT
A bartender just wants his last patron to go home, but the patron has important philosophy to discuss first!

BY OSCAR WILDE

THE DINNER PARTY
By Neil Simon
Directed by Gail Connelly
6 PERFORMANCES
NOVEMBER 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 2017
Paris.
Fancy French Restaurant.
Comedy, chaos, relationships and mystery are all served up to a party of 6 in
Neil Simon’s 31st play; THE DINNER PARTY. Derived from Simon’s own relationship
experiences, this hilarious and emotionally rich play is dished up on a plate of mystery
as these people are tossed together in a private dining room, not knowing why they
were invited and not knowing each other. You will surely laugh out loud as the evening
unfolds like a fine silk napkin.
John Ritter and Henry Winkler starred in the wildly successful Kennedy Center production
and on Broadway.
