The Chapel Street Annual "FUNdraiser" sends in the penguins with an American comedy classic!

For Immediate Release: May 31, 2009
Media Contact: Andrew John Mitchell, Chapel Street Players, 302.368.2248

"I wish to say that on my first visit to Moss Hart's house I had one of the most unpleasant evenings I can ever recall having spent."- Alexander Woollcott

It is from this that Moss Hart and George S. Kauffman penned the hysterical farce "The Man Who Came to Dinner." While on a lecture tour in Ohio, Sheridan Whiteside slips on the ice outside his hosts' home; until his broken leg heals, the hosts are forced to put up (and put up with) the imperious Whiteside. This means enduring an unending stream of Whiteside's whims, caprices and vitriolic bon mots, as well as his long-distance phone calls, eccentric guests and a variety of critters, ranging from penguins to octopi. Like the real Alexander Woollcott, Whiteside insists upon stage-managing the lives of everyone around him. This all time favorite that will keep you laughing when you leave the theater.
