DOF wasn't what the op was asking about. A point and shoot may have rendered more in apparent focus but its on board flash would probably have less power so the sharper folk at the back would have been plunged into even more darkness.

Actually if the fine folks in front were to be exposed correctly with a P&S's flash, the folks in back would have been illuminated exactly the same as with the DSLR shooting its direct flash.

Physics.
