Mark your calendars for Kauai Community Players’ last production of the season, the brilliant “God of Carnage” by Yasmina Reza, the winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play, directed by Laurel Petterson-McGraw, opening May 4 for three weekends at the Puhi Theatrical Warehouse. This will be a theater event to remember!

Two professional New York couples (played by Jennifer Downs, Morgan Liddell, Cher Ellwood, and Dennis McGraw) meet to discuss a playground altercation between their eleven-year-old sons. 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.

“…a dark and hilarious farce” –The New Yorker.

“Elegant, acerbic and entertainingly fueled on pure bile.” —Variety.
