How have we changed in the past 100 years? And, if you had to pick one thing to symbolize that change, what would it be? Gurney attempts to answer these questions with a play set in a real, honest–to-goodness dining room, not some place in the kitchen where you set up a table, which becomes a character in the play, in addition to the 57 characters portrayed by the six actors, throughout the course of a "day." You’ll see a wide range of humanity, and an exploration of the traumas, joys, and tensions of a wide variety of people performed in a room that manages to symbolize the changing of "the good old days."

"[The characters] we meet are, in turn, funny, sad or preposterous, [but] they all add up to a well-mounted production and a thoroughly enjoyable evening." - The New York Times
