The Dinner Party by Neil Simon

Neil Simon’s 31st play, The Dinner Party is a comic drama, the premise of which is simple enough: six people have been invited, unbeknownst to one another, to dine in an elegant private room at an exclusive Parisian restaurant. They arrive one at a time, encountering each other in pairs and trios, until at last they start to detect the pattern that explains why they’re there. It turns out that they are all divorced couples. They’ve been brought together to look backward—and forward—at their damaged relationships. Will—or perhaps more to the point, can—any or all of them reconcile?
