Jeremy Shamos (Gabe) and Marin Hinkle (Karen) pair up with Heather Burns (Beth) and Darren Pettie (Tom) in a match of personalities, desires, and commitment. It's not until Act 2 that we see just how much our characters have changed and only then realize how complex the situation among and between the couples is going to be. Funny, touching, thought-provoking for sure.Mr. Margulies brilliantly crafted and unassuming plot quietly exposes the complexities and intricacies of relationships - both between man and wife and among couples and best friends too. Mr. Shamos and Mr. Pettie are friends who end up being polar opposites. Ms Burns and Ms Hinkle are friends who are polar opposites who have more in common than they might actually think.
Directed by Pam McKinnon, a true 4 character charmer is unfolding at Laura Pels Theatre on West 46th.
Make sure you have time afterwards to discuss Dinner with Friends at a dinner with friends nearby.
