Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner
A timeless story of love, courage, and acceptance.
Adapted for the stage by Todd Kreidler, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner brings to life the challenges faced by an interracial couple in the 1960s. When Joanna Drayton brings her fiancé, Dr. John Prentice, home to meet her liberal-minded parents, both families are forced to confront their beliefs about love, race, and society. This poignant and thought-provoking story reminds us of the power of love and the courage it takes to challenge societal norms—lessons that remain relevant today.
