WOW!

I just saw a performance of "The Man Who Came to Dinner" and it is at the extreme of cultural literacy. The ideal audience for this work is someone proficient in the society of the time period. If you know who Admiral Byrd, Booth Tarkington, and Katharine Cornell are, you'll love catching all the names that Sheridan drops!

Still Ripe, Fresh, and Charming after 60 Years!!!

What could be said in this review? The brilliance of this magnificent drawing room comedy speaks for itself! Undoubtedly an American classic, "The Man Who Came To Dinner" has it all: Outrageous characters, a hysterical plot with many twists and turns, and enough solid one liners to keep a person laughing until next Christmas!If you don't love this play, you obviously don't love a good time.
