The philosophy is tested when a rational discussion among the polite, civilised adults quickly devolves into carnage. Emotional buttons are pressed, boundaries are assaulted and a\u00a0tense argument reveals the multiple layers of these characters, with surprising and hilarious results. The audience will undoubtedly take dark voyeuristic pleasure in watching the verbal battle which unfolds during the play.
