Casts Announced for GOD OF CARNAGE at Equality Productions

EP_logoEquality Productions proudly announces the casts for GOD OF CARNAGE.

This cast’s performance is expected to be available online Saturday, May 23 for one day only.

  • Alan – Fred Murrell
  • Annette – Katie Jensen
  • Michael – Evan Blanton
  • Veronica – Traci Taylor

This cast’s performance is expected to be available online Sunday, May 24 for one day only.

  • Alan – Chris Bishop
  • Annette – Heather Abbott
  • Michael – Darren Lee
  • Veronica – Linda Callahan

The play by Yasmina Reza (Art) won the Tony Award for Best Play and runs about 90 minutes. Note there is an advisory of Strong Language. The comedy’s inciting incident is a playground altercation between eleven-year-old boys, which brings together two sets of parents for a meeting to resolve the matter. At first, diplomatic niceties are observed, but as the meeting progresses, and the alcohol flows, tensions emerge and the gloves come off, leaving the couples with more than just their principles in tatters..

Per the agreement with the play publisher, patrons need to purchase tickets to view the shows online. In light of the country’s economic situation, we offer PAY WHAT YOU CAN tickets. The suggested donation is $10 per viewing, which you would donate directly to a Greater Cincinnati community theater of your choice.

For instructions on how to view the performance(s), email equalityproductions@gmail.com with the production(s) you want to watch (i.e., cast of 5/23 and/or cast of 5/24).

Let’s support our community theaters and these talented actors for their time and talent. Thanks for your consideration to donate to our wonderful community theaters on behalf of Equality Productions.
