Events Description

 

When faced with conflict, children can often lash out. That’s what happens on the playground, when 11-year-olds Henry and Benjamin get into a fight. Wanting to set a good example for the children, their parents come together to discuss the incident, and try to settle things in a civilized manner.

They try.

But civility is just a word, and one that is quickly forgotten when you’re standing at the precipice, where the slightest breeze will send all tumbling down. And it’s looking pretty windy.

“God of Carnage” is a dark comedy by Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton, that explores how thin the veneer of rationality can be & how childish behaviour isn’t limited to children.

Performances are Friday-Sunday, November 21 through December 7; curtain is 8pm Fridays and Saturdays, 2pm Sundays. The show is 90 minutes long and presented without intermission.
