Dark Comedy: 2f, 2m
Winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play
From the back cover:
A playground altercation between eleven-year-old boys brings together two sets of Brooklyn parents for a meeting 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 principals in tatters.
"Elegant, acerbic and entertainingly fueled on pure bile. It's Reza's sharpest work since 'Art'." --Variety
"Brutally entertaining... in another of Christopher Hampton's exquisite translations, [Reza] cannily manipulates social observations that appeal to vast audiences and creates characters that bring out the best in actors." --New York Newsday
"Reza has established herself as a master [of] magnificently constructed plays." --Entertainment Weekly
