A Life in the Theatre
Written by David Mamet
Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre, NYC
Through January 2, 2011
Someone out there must be determined to have a new Mamet revival on Broadway every season. With this current revival of
A Life in the Theatre, it appears that they are scratching the bottom of Mamet's literary barrel. In the end, neither Patrick Stewart’s ample skills as an actor nor Neil Pepe's able direction can put any real meat on this half-baked sketch of a play.
