On Thursday, November 11th, at 6 p.m., On the Verge and Thursdays at the Handwerker will present a staged reading of French playwright Yasmina Reza’s 2006 comedy, God of Carnage. The reading was directed by Claire Gleitman, a faculty member in the department of English, and the cast consists of four Ithaca College students: Laura Abbott, Justin Colombo, Andrew Karl and Morgan Lavenstein.
God of Carnage is about two sets of parents from the Cobble Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn who meet to resolve a dispute that erupted between their young sons. Amicable politeness quickly gives way to all-out warfare, as the play lays bare the anarchic underside beneath the adults’ “civilized,” upper-middle class veneers.
The reading will take place at the Handwerker Gallery, at 6 p.m. Individuals with disabilities requiring accommodations should contact Claire Gleitman in the department of English at 274-3893. We ask that requests for accommodations be made as soon as possible.
