"Oleanna", a powerful two-character drama by David Mamet, explores the destructiveness of miscommunication and excessive political correctness. It is also, by no coincidence, a play about academic politics, student/teacher relationships, and the sometimes gray area of what constitutes sexual harassment.

"Experiencing David Mamet's play 'Oleanna' on the stage was one of the most stimulating experiences I've had in a theater. In two acts, he succeeded in enraging all of the audience - the women with the first act, the men with the second. I recall loud arguments breaking out during the intermission and after the play, as the audience spilled out of an off Broadway theater all worked up over its portrait of . . . s e x u a l harassment? Or was it self-righteous Political Correctness?" --Roger Ebert

Many a strong debate has been witnessed as audiences file out of the performance, while heatedly discussing the controversial subject matter. This show is one which will undoubtedly stir many emotions and strong feelings, so get your Oleanna tickets now and see what the show brings out of you as you leave the theatre.
