Matthew Ashford Stars in The Dining Room

Former DAYS star Matthew Ashford (ex-Jack Devereaux) will star in A.R. Gurney's play entitled The Dining Room at the Victory Theatre Center in Burbank, California, according to his official website. Opening night is on Saturday, January 17 at 8 p.m. Performances thereafter are on Sundays at 4 p.m., Fridays at 8 p.m., and Saturdays at 4 p.m. and 8 p.m.

This production of The Dining Room consists of eighteen different characters, but only six actors. The play focuses on several different families through various time period and how they gathered in the dining room, which was often the place where families got together for daily meals and special occasions. Nowadays, it's the end of an era, as this once traditional place for eating is slowly disappearing. The play contains a little romance, song, dancing, and plenty of humor.

To make reservations, call (818) 765-8732 or (818) 841-5421. To make online reservations, visit the Interact Theatre Company website.

Congratulations and best wishes go out to Matt. I have no doubt he'll give an outstanding performance in this production.
