Clubnight: Director’s Pitch for GOD OF CARNAGE by Yasmina Reza, with Peter Harding-Roberts

Join Peter Harding-Roberts to hear his thoughts on God of Carnage which he will be directing as Everyman’s July production. A biting satire by Yasmina Reza whose multi award winning play ART Peter directed in 2023.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What happens when two sets of parents meet up to deal with the unruly behaviour of their children? A calm and rational debate between grown-ups about the need to teach kids how to behave properly? Or a hysterical night of name-calling, tantrums and tears before bedtime? Boys will be boys, but the adults are worse – much worse.

God of Carnage is a black comedy of manners, without manners.

This internationally acclaimed play takes you deep into the most dangerous place on Earth: parenthood.

2009 Olivier Award for Best Comedy
2009 Tony Awards – Best Play

Adapted into the acclaimed 2011 film CARNAGE, directed by Roman Polanski starring Jodie Foster, Kate Winslet, Christoph Waltz and John C Reilly.
