Dinner at Eight

Lincoln Center presents a new production of George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber?s 1932 play Dinner at Eight, directed by Gerald Gutierrez. The play peers into the lives of a group of high society New Yorkers during the 1930s. As a social-climbing Park Avenue hostess hurriedly organizes a dinner party in honor of visiting English nobility, the action skips around the city to reveal the background of each of the invited guests and the business intrigues and clandestine romantic entanglements that link them all together.
