‘‘Mr. Mamet has written – in gentle ridicule; in jokes, broad and tiny; and in comedy, high and low – a love letter to the theatre. It is quite a feat, and he has pulled it off.’’ –The New Yorker

A funny, touching, behind-the-scenes peek at actors battling to share the spotlight and a dressing room, Pulitzer Prize-winner David Mamet’s A Life in the Theatre follows older, experienced Robert and newcomer John. From rehearsals to reprisals, from ego trips to acting tips, this comedy, inspired by Mamet’s own experiences, explores the complexity of passing the torch from one generation to the next – and the change from love and mutual respect to impatience and resentment. A comedy for all theatre lovers!
