The Party in the Kitchen
A play by Madelyn Sergel.
Set in the kitchen of Lily and Phil's Midwestern home, The Party in the Kitchen explores in microcosm the events of the last decade, revealing how the families of this country navigated the attacks, floods, economic devastation, and wars fought in far away lands. Beginning on an idyllic early fall day in September 2001, a group of friends gather, unsuspecting of the upheaval to follow. From business tycoon Guy and Ava's tumultuous marriage, just-getting-started Danny and his pregnant Mary, and middle management Phil and Lily's happy home, all will be changed by events already launched in far away lands and the deals made in distant corporate headquarters.
Truths are spilled in the kitchen. Bottles and hearts opened, canapés and confidences are shared, revealing that the things which hold us together are stronger than those which set us apart. Friendship trumps politics. Hope beats back despair. Generosity overcomes fear. And the bonds of friends and family are stronger than any mere global crisis.
