“God of Carnage,” written by Yasmina Reza, won the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play. It follows two sets of parents, the Novaks and the Raleighs, as they meet to discuss a playground altercation between their 11-year-old sons. When they begin attempting to parent the other couple’s child, tensions rise, alcohol flows and hilarity ensues. Over the course of the evening, they each revert to their 11-year-old self when faced with a bully in front of them.
