Omnium Gatherum

Join an unusual dinner party as a peculiar collection of souls gathers to enjoy conversation spiced with wit over an haute nouvelle menu with their host, a Martha Stewartesque perfectionist. An unexpected guest initiates a surprising turn of events. This biting, funny play about Manhattanites and their response to 9/11 is both irreverent and surreal. The New York Times called it a “piping hot slice of satire,” with “tragedy and triviality mixed into a salad deliriously tossed.”

Omnium Gatherum, by Theresa Rebeck & Alexandra Gersten-Vassilaros, receives its area premiere.
