Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr Heads To Broadway This Spring In Mamet’s GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS
The takeover of Broadway with Hollywood stars this season continues this spring it seems! Tony Winner Patrick Marber will direct David Mamet’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play Glengarry Glen Ross in a brand new production this spring on Broadway. An all star cast including Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr lead the production at a Broadway theatre that will be announced at a later date. Both Odenkirk and Burr will make their Broadway debuts with this production.
“In 1983, I saw the original production of Glengarry Glen Ross in London,” Patrick Marber said. “I was just nineteen. The play blew my young soul away. It was one of the reasons I wanted to work in theatre. Forty years later, I am so thrilled to be directing it on Broadway with these incredible actors. I will do my utmost to ensure that this great American play brings audiences the same great pleasures it brought to me.”
Glengarry Glen Ross is set in a cutthroat Chicago real estate office where four salespeople compete to sell mostly worthless properties to unwitting customers. Whoever sells the most wins a car; whoever sells the least is out of a job – a ruthless environment where each character will do anything to come out on top.
Additional casting will be announced at a later date.
