(October 10, 2007 Littleton, Colo.) From October 25 through November 4, Arapahoe Community College's Theatre ACC will be presenting 'The Dining Room' by A.R. Gurney. Within a single dining room, this critically-acclaimed portrait of 20th century family life tells the story of the dying culture of upper-middle class America. Presented as a series of charming and soulful vignettes, this play explores the joys and tensions at the core of American prosperity. Timeless in its appeal, it charts the evolution of the American family and its primary meeting place.

'The Dining Room' premiered in New York in 1982 and was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize. It has since been staged throughout the United States and Canada, as well as Asia, and Australia. Its author, A.R. Gurney, is one of the most prolific and produced playwrights in America.

Theatre ACC's production of 'The Dining Room,' is directed by Jay Louden. The play runs from October 25-27 and November 1-3 at 7:30 p.m.; and October 28 and November 4 at 2 p.m. in the ACC Waring Theater, 5900 South Santa Fe Drive in Littleton.

Tickets are $12 for adults, $8 for seniors/students, and $5 per ticket for groups of 10 or more. For more information or to RSVP for a group, call 303.797.5700 extension 6535.
