Goodman's GOD OF CARNAGE Extends Through 4/17

Goodman Theatre extends Yasmina Reza's laugh-out-loud, triple-Tony-Award winning God of Carnage, directed by Rick Snyder, for five additional performances. The "savagely entertaining" (Variety) God of Carnage now runs through April 17 with its ensemble cast of four intact. When Alan (David Pasquesi) and Annette (Beth Lacke)'s son hits Michael (Keith Kupferer) and Veronica (Mary Beth Fisher)'s son with a stick, the two couples meet to discuss the problem over clafouti and coffee. What starts as a civilized get-together quickly devolves into a riotous evening that The New Yorker calls "ninety minutes of sustained mayhem." God of Carnage earned critical acclaim in London and on Broadway earning the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Comedy and three Tony Awards, including Best Play. Allstate is the Lead Corporate Sponsor for God of Carnage and Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP and Fifth Third Bank are the Corporate Sponsor Partners. Tickets to God of Carnage ($25 - $78) are currently on sale at GoodmanTheatre.org. Tickets and subscriptions can also be purchased at the box office (170 North Dearborn) or by phone at 312.443.3800.
