a single dining room where 18 scenes from different<br />

households overlap and intertwine. Each story is<br />

focused around a different family during different time<br />

periods from 1935 to 1980, who has in their possession<br />

the same dining room furniture set, manufactured in<br />

1898. It is a multiple character, ensemble piece wherein<br />

each actor plays more than one character.<br />
