There’s a reason Glengarry Glen Ross, David Mamet’s
Pulitzer, Olivier and Tony award-winning 1984 drama, is having major revivals
all across the US.
It can be found in the forsaken suburban tracts and vacated
foreclosures that have hollowed out many American cities, so much like the
worthless developments that Mamet’s salesman are hawking to their unsuspecting clients.
Little y Theatre’s production at the Blue Room has an
all-female cast (although it’s required to use the script’s male character
names and pronouns). Even if you’re not a devotee of gender-swapping theatre, a
revival of a play about real estate is as appropriate a place as any to do it.
