Today, she spotlights Dinner with Friends, the 1999 Off-Broadway hit about friendship and marriage that won playwright Donald Magulies the 2000 Pultizer Prize for Drama. A new production of this popular play is now on stage at Baltimore's Everyman Theatre.Directed by Everyman's Founding Artistic Director Vincent Lancisi and starring a quartet of Everyman Resident Company actors, Dinner with Friends centers on married food writers Gabe (played by M.
