Sept. 20: 'God of Carnage' Debuts at REP Theatre

What happens when two sets of parents meet up to deal with the unruly behavior of their children? A calm and rational debate between grown-ups about the need to teach kids how to behave properly in a civilized manner? Boys will be boys, but adults are usually worse … much, much worse.


This comedy of manners (without the manners) follows two upper-middle-class Brooklyn couples meet to discuss an incident of playground violence between their sons. Though the evening begins with polite pleasantries, it quickly descends into primal madness as tempers flare, loyalties shift and the parents devolve into children as their meeting takes a turn into chaos.


Directed by REP Executive Director, Ovington Michael Owston and adapted by Yasmina Reza, “God of Carnage” stars REP Alums, Mark Kaplan, Leslie Connelly, Dennis Hadley and Heidi Appe. “God of Carnage” is Sponsored by Outpost Media.


“God of Carnage” SPECIAL EVENTS: There will be NO Intermission.


Pre-order your drinks for a post-show meet and greet with the cast after every Friday and Saturday night performances.
