What happens when two sets of parents meet up to deal with the unruly behaviour of their children A calm and rational debate between grown-ups about the need to teach kids how to behave properly Or a hysterical night of name-calling, tantrums and tears before bedtime
Boys will be boys, but the adults are usually worse - much worse.
"Reza holds the mirror up to bourgeois hypocrisy withthe savage indignation of a born satirist", Guardian. "A triumph! Brilliantly translated by Christopher Hampton", Daily Express.
