What would you do if you were about to become prime minister of the country and suddenly learnt of a crime committed by your adolescent son and his cousin? For which there seem to be no witnesses and which is already beginning to disappear from the country's short-term memory?

The Dinner is a moral thriller and a debate play full of clever twists and surprising feints.
It is about violence and how it survives powerfully under the thin veneer of civilisation, how the human instinct for aggression is transmitted within the family and hushed up by society, how it is repressed, played down and medicated to ensure that everything continues to function well.
The play is directed by András Dömötör, who has produced numerous plays at the Deutsches Theater in recent seasons.
