God of Carnage is one of the funniest plays this season. Performed by one of the strongest casts (Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis, Marcia Gay Harden and James Gandolfini) on Broadway.

This production will take a summer hiatus from July 27 to September 7. Do not miss out on your chance to see this amazing cast. They will return to the show, but for how long is not certain. I am sure the show will still be great will a new cast, but to see Marcia Gay Harden in her Tony Award winning performance is a special treat. Not to mention all 3 of her Tony nominated co-stars as together they create perfect harmony.

God of Carnage won this years TONY for Best Play of the year. It is about two civilized married couples who meet up to sort out a playground fight. The son of one couple has broken two of the teeth of the son of the other couple. At first diplomatic niceties are observed, but as the meeting progresses and the rum flows, huge tensions emerge and the gloves come off, leaving more than just their liberal principles in tatters.
