Dinner with Friends

Dinner with Friends

Presented by Costa Mesa Playhouse at Costa Mesa Civic Playhouse

This engrossing, satirical play about marriage, betrayal and food, which the author calls “a rueful comedy,” follows two inseparable couples at different ages and stages of their lives. They share vacations and countless dinners together, but when one marriage unexpectedly crumbles, their lives veer into opposite directions. Can these four friends move on to the next chapter without moving apart, or have they changed beyond recognition?

 "Margulies writes about relationships with such intelligence and spiky humor that his comedy-drama…becomes something quite wonderful,” said Time Magazine. San Francisco Examiner called the play "a breezy comedy of modern manners that turns poignant and deeply affecting by its end. Margulies touches chords that resonate with a deep affecting humanity."

“Dinner with Friends” director Michael Serna has reunited the cast from his acclaimed 2014 production of “God of Carnage.” The cast features Angel Correa, Peter Hilton, Jordana Oberman and Michelle M. Pedersen. Correa and Hilton played the leads in last season’s “Of Mice and Men,” also directed by Serna. Pedersen was in last season’s “Red Scare on Sunset.”

Performances are Fridays & Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Reservations can be made at costamesaplayhouse.com or by calling 949-650-5269.
