Mistaken identities are at the heart of Marc Camoletti’s entertaining farce˜Don’t Dress for Dinner, on stage at the Arts Center. And wouldn’t you know it — the two visitors have confusingly similar names! Suzanne (Jessiee Datino) is Bernard’s buxom, air-headed mistress, arriving for a weekend tryst while Suzette (Aubrey Saverino) is a Cordon-Bleu chef hired to cater a romantic dinner. The plot thickens when a third visitor comes over as well.

Don't Dress For Dinner opened in Paris in 1987, under the original title Pajamas Pour Six, and ran for over two years. Robert Hawdon's adaptation of the original French play premiered in London at the Apollo Theatre in 1991 and ran for six years.

Don't Dress for Dinner Review

By Nancy K Wellard

Bernard and Gabriella and Robert and Suzette and Suzanne and George -- in no particular order or pairing -- have made their weekend plans. All will stay, or at least drop by, the country home of Bernard and Gabriella, who live just about two hours outside of Paris.

Sound reasonable?

Oh no, no, no.

What ensues is a tightly twisted, romantic French farce in which nothing goes as planned -- and thank heavens for that.

 Bernard (Adam Jonas Segaller) is bundling his wife, the formidable Gabriella (Eleanor Handley), off for a weekend with her mother. In the meantime, he has arranged for his mistress, Suzanne (Jessiee Datino), a luscious and delicious model who lives in Paris, to spend the weekend with him. Ever the romantic, he has also arranged for a cateress, through Cordon Bleu, to prepare and serve a gourmet dinner on the night of Suzanne's arrival.

What audiences didn't see were the whirring fans that blew nonstop to dry the set's wet paint, the support beams that were built to hold up the 20-foot faux-stone walls or the grimy, oatmeal-sullied T-shirt of actor Adam Jonas Segaller during a rehearsal that called for him to get pelted with food again and again.

At a recent rehearsal, for example, Segaller (Bernard) practiced getting spattered with a pot of gloopy oatmeal.

Should they use a whisk or a spatula to fling the oatmeal? Should the oatmeal be thick and sticky or thin and runny? Should Segaller use one hand or two to swipe the oatmeal off his shirt? These things needed to be hashed out. Four, five, six times. Enough so that when the scene was over, Segaller had oats in the creases of his shoelaces.
