 Description
Dining room stories from over 12 different, upper middle-class American homes all take place one after another in just one room with an all-important dining table. Actors each play up to ten different roles as guests or family members of all different ages throughout the play, creating a mosaic of unconnected dining room snapshot scenes: An elderly woman cannot recognize her own sons at Thanksgiving dinner. 
A children's birthday party is the backdrop to an adulterous affair. Teenage girls steal their parents' liquor to drink around the table undisturbed. A moralizing father lectures his impressionable young son on politics, manners and grammar at breakfast. 
The dining room is the place where these scenes overlap and flow swiftly on from each other, leaving the audience with many touching, funny and sometimes unforgettably rueful moments.
