The Connecticut Theater Company will open its production of the “The Man Who Came to Dinner” on March 10, 2018.
The play, by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, as described by the Theater,
is set in a small town in Ohio in December. Famous and outlandish orator Sheridan Whiteside has been invited to dinner at the house of the well-off Stanley family. He slips on a patch of ice outside the house, however, and injures his hip. He is attended by Dr. Bradley, the town physician, and Miss Preen, his nurse. The Stanley’s, intimidated by Whiteside’s threats of legal prosecution, are forced to allow him to remain at their house while he convalesces.
