American Theatre Company - God of Carnage

This autumn’s offering from the American Theatre Company is Yasmina Riza’s Tony Award winning play, God of Carnage. Two couples meet one evening to discuss a playground fight between their sons during which one boy has lost his two front teeth. The discussion starts off cordial and polite but as the evening wears on and alcohol loosens inhibitions, polite conversation and social etiquette dissolve into a comedic exchange of abuse and accusations. According to director Andrew Johnson, “it’s a farce about the social conventions that bind us and how we are prisoners of our own memetic programming”. 

God of Carnage runs from 8-17 November, The Warehouse Studio Theatre, Rue Waelhem 69A, Schaerbeek
