In Grudges, two brothers whose friendship has been sundered by the 2016 election get together for a ‘bury-the-hatchet’ dinner. They solemnly agree to never let the words “Trump” or “Obama” pass through their lips during the course of the evening.

But promises are made to be broken. And hatchets rarely stay buried for long.

Joe Queenan & T.J. Elliott follow up their sold-out 2019 Off-Broadway success Alms with a play that explores the relations within families inflamed by the current political divide. Here's what audience members have said about Grudges:

• "What darkish fun! The actors were great. The jokes were machinegun non stop"
• "A splendid cast! "
• "Riveting, delightful, discomfiting; the acting was marvelous; the characters endearing and maddening"
• WOWSA PLUS!!!!
• "Really strong script"
• "Poignant, witty, and honest"
• "Funny, and thought provoking. Terrific play and performance. "
• "… there are definitely members of all of our families or neighbors ( and even ourselves in some respects and to a degree) who could identify with the various characters and their beliefs ,and the social dilemma is certainly very timely and real. ... Very “spot on” and entertaining."
