Glengarry Glen Ross Summary

Glengarry Glen Ross by David Mamet

Lies. Greed. Corruption. It's business as usual. Set in an office of cut-throat Chicago salesmen, four increasingly desperate employees will do anything, legal or otherwise, to sell the most real estate. Pitched in a high-stakes competition against each other, as time and luck start to run out the mantra is simple: close the deal and you've won a Cadillac; blow the lead and you're f****d. This new edition of the 1983 Olivier Award-winning Best Play and the 1984 Pulitzer Prize for Drama was published to coincide with a new 2017 West End revival starring Christian Slater, Robert Glenister and Kris Marshall.

Glengarry Glen Ross Reviews

A chillingly funny indictment of a world in which you are what you sell * Guardian *
The finest American playwright of his generation * The Sunday Times *
David Mamet, screenwriter of The Verdict and The Postman Always Rings Twice, is alongside Sam Shepard and Michael Weller, one of the most distinctive voices on the contemporary American stage. * Financial Times *
Nobody alive writes better American...Here at last, carving characters out of language, is a play with real muscle. * Observer *
