Jeff Daniels Stars As Broadway's 'God Of Carnage'

Jeff Daniels joins an all-star cast in the new Broadway comedy "God of Carnage."

The play begins when the son of one couple (Jeff Daniels and Hope Davis) has broken two of the teeth of the son of another (James Gandolfini and Marcia Gay Harden). As a result of the incident, huge tensions emerge and the gloves come off, leaving the two supposed civilized married couples caught up in an all-out playground fight.

Aside from acting, Daniels is also a musician and playwright. On Broadway, he has appeared in Lanford Wilson's "Redwood Curtain," A. R. Gurney's "The Golden Age" and Wilson's "Fifth of July." Notable film roles include Dumb and Dumber, Speed, Terms of Endearment, and The Lookout. Musically, he has produced two full length albums, entitled Grandfather's Hat and Jeff Daniels Live and Unplugged.

"God of Carnage" is playing at the Bernard Jacobs Theater, located at 242 W. 45th Street, New York, NY 10036. For ticket and show information, visit godofcarnage.com.

You can also see Daniels in person performing at City Winery (155 Varick Street) at 9pm on April 20, May 18 and June 22. He will be playing and singing his own compositions and proceeds go to support Purple Rose Theatre Company -- his theatre in Chelsea, Michigan.
