Back in 2015, our production of At The Table was the culmination of two years of workshops and development to create a script collaboratively with director/writer Michael Perlman, the actors, and designers. The play has now grown beyond the walls of our company and is now receiving its Midwest Premiere in Chicago at Broken Nose Theatre (the same company that brought From White Plains to Chicago in 2014). Like proud parents, we're so happy to see our little one all grown up and out in the world by itself. Wishing broken legs to everyone in Broken Nose Theatre! We hope this play treats you as well as it has treated us!

A Little About The Show
Six friends head out of the city on their annual retreat for the weekend. With no social media, no cellphones, no internet allowed all, this leaves them with one thing to do… look up from their screens and talk to each other. And when the liquor starts flowing and the tongues start to loosen, no conversation is uneventful and no topic is off-limits. AT THE TABLE is a new comedy that begs the question: what happens when those with privilege are pushed to the periphery and a marginalized minority suddenly finds its voice amplified? Who is allowed at what discussion table, and who isn’t?
