Alfred University Theatre Departments fall production: “Don’t Dress for Dinner”
From Alfred University,
Alfred University’s Theatre Department presents the comedy “Don’t Dress for Dinner.” All performances are free and run for two consecutive weekends in Miller Theatre; Nov 1, 2 and Nov 8, 9 starting at 7:30 p.m.
Don’t Dress For Dinner is written in the style of a classic French farce, full of mistaken identities, rapid-fire dialogue, and unexpected twists. Bernard wants Suzanne. His wife Jacqueline wants his best friend Robert. Suzette comes to cook them all dinner, and her husband George might have to set them all straight. Written by French playwright Marc Camoletti, this boulevard comedy was a smash hit in Paris, where it played for over two years, and in London, where it ran for six years. It has since played in theatres all over America where it was revived in Chicago and on Broadway. Now we are bringing the action to Alfred University!
