A play by David Mamet
West Australian Premiere
From the writer of Glengarry Glen Ross, Oleanna and American Buffalo comes a witty, caustic insight into the world of the Hollywood Executive.
When the biggest star in Hollywood wants to make your movie, just how far will you go to clinch the deal? A film producer faces the ultimate dilemma. His long time friend brings him the movie that will make him his fortune; and his new attractive secretary encourages him to make the spiritual, apocalyptic movie that will save his soul. He only has one night to choose. In this tale of greed, desire and power, everything he believes in will be put to the test.
David Mamet strips the tinsel from a town where artistic integrity is rarely questioned.
Speed-The-Plow contains strong language.
“…shrewd, fast and immensely funny…”
New York Times
“Of all American playwrights, Mamet remains the shrewdest observer of the evil that men do unto each other in the name of buddyhood”
