The Dinner Party
March 20th, 21st, 22nd - 2025 - 7:30 pm
DePaolo Middle School
385 Pleasant St, Southington
Here is a decidedly French dinner party served up in a chaotic mode that only a master of comedy could create: Five people are invited to dine at a first-rate restaurant in Paris. They do not know who the other guests will be or why they have been invited. Tossed together in a private dining room, they have a sneaking suspicion that this unorthodox dinner party will forever change their lives. John Ritter and Henry Winkler starred in the wildly successful Kennedy Center production and on Broadway.

Faith Auletta (Yvonne) is thrilled to be returning to the stage with SCT in “The Dinner Party”! After taking a five year break from performing, she decided there was no better time than the present to start up again.

Faith would like to thank her mom, Evie, JJ and her dad who she gets to share the stage with, for all the love and encouragement. Additionally, she would like to shoutout Continuity Productions for their support and of course this amazing cast and crew! IG: @faithauletta
