What begins as a social call quickly - and hilariously - takes a bizarre turn. What follows is a wildly unpredictable afternoon with life-altering consequences.
"Delivers more consistent laughs than I've had in a long time" CBC
Centred in the dining room the action of this play is comprised of a mosaic of interrelated scenes - some touching, some funny, some rueful - which taken together create an in-depth portrait of a vanishing species - the upper middle class family. The actors change roles, personalities and ages with virtuoso skill.
"A thoughtful and superbly written comedy" - Variety
A deliciously savage satire of two couples locked in battle. A playground altercation between eleven year old boys brings together two sets of Brooklyn parents to resolve the matter. At first diplomatic niceties are observed, but as the meeting progresses ... and the rum flows, tensions emerge and the gloves come off, leaving the couples with more than just their liberal principles in tatters. Winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play.
