What happens when a daughter brings home a young man to meet her ultra-liberal Upper East Side parents for the first time and he turns out to be the antithesis of everything they stand for? Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner takes on a whole new meaning in this play starring Sarah Nealis as Kitty, Christian Pedersen as her fiancée-to-be, John FitzGibbon as her unflappable father, and Judith Hawking as her mother, a former soap-opera actress who guards her home like a cornered lioness.
Saving Kitty won Best Play from Portland Stages’ Clauder competition in 2010 and premiered at the Wellfleet Actors Harbor Theater in July 2012.
PERFORMANCES: Thursdays, Fridays at 8:00 PM; Saturdays at 3:00 PM and 8:00 PM; and Sundays at 2:00 PM July 25-August 25.
