SPEED-THE-PLOW by David Mamet

Filled with playwright David Mamet's trademark intense rapid-fire dialogue and provocative themes, "Speed-the-Plow" focuses on the ruthless nature of the Hollywood movie industry. Directed by Artistic Director Grant McGowen, it's a behind the scenes story of handshaking, dealbreaking, and backstabbing as only Pulitzer Prize winner Mamet can tell it.

"A perfect cast... They deliver. Go." -Atlanta InTown

"Lively and engrossing... Smith and Mello relish the volley of Mamet's dialogue...it's always fun watching Mamet put the right actors through their paces." -Creative Loafing

"Still timely, taking digs about the industry...Cynical and funny, with some occasionally profane one-liners...Costello is talented and has reliable timing." -ArtsATL

"Raw in your face Hollywood suspense, a perfect play in a place that is burgeoning as the new East Coast star making movie town and beckon of dreams, ATLwood." -Pure Politics
