God of Carnage

Tony Award, Best Play

Yazmina Reza's savagely funny comedy has been described as a comedy of manners...without the manners. When two well-to-do New York City couples meet to discuss their sons' playground altercation, the thin veneer of civility that shrouds their lives is quickly usurped by more savage instincts. Watch out as cordial banter gives way to adults behaving very, very badly.

"Intelligent entertainment...a knockabout farce." The Wall Street Journal
