More casting has been revealed for Broadway's upcoming revival of David Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross, set to take the stage in spring 2025 with dates and a theatre to be announced. Tony winner Patrick Marber (Leopoldstadt) is directing.
Joining previously announced stars Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr as Richard Roma, Shelly Levene, and Dave Moss, respectively, will be Michael McKean (Better Call Saul) as George Aaronow, Donald Webber Jr. (Our Town) as John Williamson, Howard W. Overshown (The Lehman Trilogy) as Baylen, and John Pirruccello (Phil Spector) as James Lingk.
Glengarry Glen Ross, which premiered at London's National in 1983 before making a Broadway debut in 1984, centers on four Chicago real estate agents. Over two days, the group stops at nothing to make the next sale, primarily the prime real estate in Glengarry Highlands that they want to turn into a repeat of their past success with Glen Ross Farms.
The play has proved to be one of, if not the, most successful of Mamet's catalogue, hitting the big screen in an Academy Award-nominated 1992 film and returning to Broadway in 2005 and 2012. The work also earned Mamet a Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1984.
"In 1983, I saw the original production of Glengarry Glen Ross in London,” said Marber in an earlier statement. "I was just 19. 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."
Jeffrey Richards and Rebbeca Gold are producing. Further creative team members and ticket sale information will be announced. Visit GlengarryOnBroadway.com.
