    Glengarry Glen Ross by David Mamet. This classic of the American theatre is David Mamet at his best. 2009 marks the 25th anniversary of his Pulitzer Prize-winning drama, so a celebration is in order. This scalding comedy-drama took Broadway and London by storm when it opened in 1984, when it also garnered a Tony nomination for best play. Never has the author's ear for the rhythms of contemporary speech been more keen than in this tale of cutthroat competition among real estate salesmen. In the first act, the salesmen vie for position as they gulp their cocktails in the local Chinese restaurant. The second act shifts to the office where the promising Glengarry Glen Ross leads have been filched. Mamet’s not-so-subtle reflection on how bad things happen when vulnerable people are reduced to targets by unscrupulous sharks unfortunately still resonates today from the current credit card debacle to the subprime mortgage collapse.

          The acting was INCREDIBLE, the f-bombs were plentiful and the lines of business ethics were crossed. Highly recommend seeing this show! It's ironic how a play that was written in the 1980s is still so... Expand
