The Little
Theatre Group of Costa Rica once again brings
a Broadway hit to the stage at the Laurence
Olivier Theatre. Opening on April 26th
for two weekends, God of Carnage, written by
Yasmina Reza and the winner of the Tony award
for Best Play in 2009, will come to life in
the hands of some of the LTG's best known
actors. Director Noel Montagano and an
incredible cast, Susan Liang, Tom Humes, Lisa
DeFuso and Chicago import Jim Kissane are sure
to bring a high level of professionalism to
this comedy. They will fill the evening with
laughs.
The setting is
a modern day Brooklyn loft apartment. One
11-year-old has wacked another kid in the
mouth, and both sets of parents meet to
alternatively apologize, assess blame, work
out consequences and throw their multifarious
neuroses in each other's faces.
The son of
Alan, a big shot lawyer for pharmaceutical
companies, and his wife Annette, a wealth
manager, hit the other child with a large
stick, which broke two incisors and exposed a
nerve. The son of Veronica, a cultural
anthropologist of sorts, author and art
fanatic, and Michael, a self-made seller of
domestic items, would not let the other boy
play in his "gang," which initiated the
quarrel. The two sets of parents attempt to
civilly and amicably discuss the ramifications
and punishments associated with the incident.
The hell that breaks out is sleekly amusing
partly because the two teams not only go at
each other, they also sometimes switch sides.
It can be partner against partner, or boys
against girls, without an ounce of
introspection or admission of responsibility
on any side.
The LTG
production of God of Carnage will run about 90
minutes and the group looks forward to a
positive response from English-speaking
theatre goers in Costa Rica.
