God of Carnage

Award Winning Playwright

This is the most celebrated cast in recent Broadway history reuniting exclusively at the Ahmanson for the Tony Award®-winning comedy God of Carnage. This production will perform only at the Ahmanson and will not tour to any other city.

This is a production that truly took New York by storm: smashing all-time box office records and nabbing Tony Award nominations for all four actors, and eventually earning the Tony Award for Best Play, Best Director and a Best Actress Tony for Marcia Gay Harden. Knowing that Los Angeles deserves the best in everything, we have worked diligently for the past 6 months trying to secure all the elements that made that production a runaway success.

God of Carnage is set in a gentrified section of Brooklyn where two married couples meet to sort out a playground fight between their sons. At first, niceties are observed but as the evening progresses and the rum flows, the gloves come off and the night becomes a side-splitting free-for-all.
