Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play and the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy, this ruthlessly comic study of middle-class parenting is one of the most successful plays in the history of the West End.
When eleven-year-old Freddie hits eleven-year-old Henry with a stick in a playground punch-up and knocks out two of his teeth, the enlightened parents meet to talk things over. But once the niceties are done with and the drink starts flowing, it is the parents who turn into spoilt brats.
