The kids have been fighting. Or rumbling. Or sparring. Call it what you will, something nasty has happened in the park and it's time for the grown-ups to intervene.
The evening starts civilly enough. Michel and Veronique are genial hosts. Alain and Annette are gracious guests. That is until the facade of gentility is swept away, sending accusations and recriminations hurtling like missiles between the couples.
They might be the grown-ups, but are they grown up? Do any of them have the moral superiority required to negotiate a just and diplomatic outcome? Do they even really care?
Tool up, throw on your combat gear and get ready for action. This is war.
Yasmina Reza, the author of Art and Life x 3, has hit the nail on the head again. Her explosive satire is the must-see comedy of the year, with sold out seasons on the West End and Broadway and a return season scheduled for Broadway this September. Don't miss the Sydney season of God of Carnage!
One of Australia's most distinguished directors, Gale Edwards, directs a stellar cast in this comedic tour-de-force.
