Dinner – STC
A hysterical black satire about a devious dinner party host.
Overview
Someone's got to say it – we're into the back end of the year and unless you are completely shameless about getting sozzled come the silly season, there's a good chance you're staring down the barrel of a few awkward festive gatherings. You know the ones – where all of your acquaintances have mysteriously vanished and you spend the night grinding out awkward conversations with coworkers/relatives/friends of friends that you're pretty sure you'd hate, if only you knew them well enough.
Lucky for you, the Sydney Theatre Company are here to provide some catharsis in the form of Moira Buffini's Dinner, a twisty, nasty comedy that's likely to see somebody walk away with a fork in their eye.
Paige isn't thrilled to be celebrating her husband's new book, but she throws a damn good party and it's a chance to rub shoulders with some C-list personalities. With a few schemes lined up to keep the night interesting, the one thing Paige hasn't planned for is an unexpected guest.
Acerbic, slippery and with a liberal serving of spite accompanying each course, this is a perfect study in the pitfalls of forced politeness.
