God of Carnage&nbsp;
by Yasmina Reza 
translated by Christopher Hampton 
Join us for a staged-reading of this razor-sharp internationally acclaimed, Tony Award and Olivier Award-winning comedy. &nbsp;When two sets of parents get together to discuss a fight their sons had in a park, civility swiftly descends into savage childishness.&nbsp;God of Carnage&nbsp;is witty, biting, with sparkling dialogue and keen observations about marriage, parenting, and human nature. This dark comedy adeptly illustrates how beneath every polished exterior lies the potential for complete mayhem.
This event is free and open to the public!
