Written by Donald Margulies, Directed by Curtis Barber

The end of a marriage is never just between two people.

Beneath the veneer of successful careers, elegant dinners, and decades-long friendships lies a more complicated truth. In Donald Margulies’ Pulitzer Prize-winning Dinner with Friends , a shocking divorce sends ripples through the lives of two couples who thought they knew one another—and themselves. What follows is a razor-sharp, darkly funny examination of love, loyalty, desire, and the stories we tell to sustain our closest relationships.

Sophisticated, provocative, and emotionally devastating, Dinner with Friends peels back the layers of modern marriage to reveal the fragile fault lines beneath. Margulies’ incisive dialogue and unflinching honesty make this contemporary classic as relevant today as ever, challenging audiences to ask: How well do we really know the people we love?Read more
