GOD OF CARNAGE by Yasmina Reza and translated from the original French by Christopher Hampton Two seemingly civilized couples meet to resolve a dispute after their children are involved in a playground altercation. What begins as a polite, controlled conversation quickly devolves into chaos as the adults true selves emerge. Rezas sharp wit and biting dialogue expose the fragility of social norms and the volatility of human nature. As the evening progresses, the veneer of civility peels away, revealing a primal struggle for dominance, exposing personal insecurities, and dismantling carefully constructed facades. God of Carnage is a darkly comic and provocative exploration of the tensions that exist beneath the surface of everyday life. With a keen eye for the absurdities of human behavior, Reza deftly uncovers the conflict that simmers just below the surface, turning a simple meeting into an explosive examination of our capacity for cruelty, vulnerability, and the breakdown of social order. Join renowned Cambridge company Corkscrew Theatre to examine the thin veil separating civility from savagery. Full bar available on the night. Venue and Bar open at 6.15pm Show starts 7.30pm
