god of carnage...


Saw the 2pm show @ Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre on 45th near 8th...

I had a standing room only ticket and the view was great, but standing for a 90 minute play is taxing especially when one has to walk so much in Manhattan...

"God of Carnage" stars Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis, James Gandolfini, and Marcia Gay Harden. Last Sunday, Marcia Gay Harden won the Tony Award for lead actress in a play. Marcia is phenomenal, but a close second is Jeff Daniels.

Both Hope Davis and "Tony Soprano" were great, although I thought Gandofini started off slow.

Playwright Yasmine Reza won the Tony for best play.

The play takes place in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Cobble Hill which has gotten some television time lately as the home of "Real Housewives of New York City" joined @ the hip couple- Silex. If you have stooped to watching shitty reality tv like I have- you'll know who I'm talking about...
