The Dinner Party immerses us in the comic and strange realities of modern life, as we journey through the lives of the unlovable, the unloved, and those who love too much- Jack, who nervously tries to befriend the surly removal man by buying him a latte and a croissant; Sarah, who endlessly imagines how her evening would have been better had she only chosen a different restaurant; Joe, who spends a night alone at the office and surreptitiously starts to rearrange his colleagues' belongings; Dom, who can't stop listening to strangers' conversations, while his wife is increasingly silent. And then there is the dinner party, bringing the countless decisions and regrets of a single evening painfully to life.
