What the critics are saying about the most talked-about play of the season.
"You think I hate you. What I did is from love."
Carol and Jerry celebrate their anniversary with friends Martin and Judy. But an evening of haute cuisine and expensive wine is cut short when Martin, no longer able to repress years of frustration, lashes out at the people he loves. Soon, the facade of their pristine American lives shatters. With ferocious humor and violent turns, David Adjmi's searing drama lays bare the vast desolation that lies beneath a quiet dinner with friends.
For mature audiences. Includes strong language, violence and nudity.
David Adjmi’s plays have been developed and produced in the United States and England at theatres including Lincoln Center, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Royal Court Theatre, and Robert Redford’s Sundance Institute.
