The Barnstormers Theatre presents the Pulitzer Prize-winning "Dinner with Friends," July 14 to 18 in Tamworth, NH.

When a happily married couple learns that their best friends are getting a divorce, they begin to question their friendship and the stability of their own marriage.

"'Dinner with Friends' is about the danger and challenge of relationships that have matured over time and are struggling to survive mid-life," says Bob Shea, artistic director of The Barnstormers.

The play presents both couples at different ages and stages in their lives. Written by Donald Margulies, "Dinner with Friends" won the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 2000. The play is "wry and keenly observed and bathed in the unspoken sorrow that can sneak up on you in middle age," according to Peter Marks of the NY Times.

Directed by Barnstormers veteran Dale Place, "Dinner with Friends" features Leigh Ellen Caudill as Karen, John Schnatterly as Gabe, Kathy Manfre as Beth, and Bill Mootos as Tom.

Performances of "Dinner with Friends" are at 8 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday, with an additional matinee at 2 p.m. on Saturday. Friday night is Family Night at The Barnstormers, with family groups (containing at least one person age 18 or under) admitted for half price, available on the day of the show. The Barnstormers Theatre is air-conditioned and handicap accessible. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 603-323-8500 or visit the web site at http://www.barnstormerstheatre.org.
