Audiences Tweet Positive Reviews for Lindsay Lohan on Night Two of SPEED-THE-PLOW

While film star Lindsay Lohan may have taken some knocks following her opening night performance in David Mamet's West End production of Speed-the-Plow, the 'Mean Girls' star seems to have redeemed herself on night two of performances according to tweets from audience members.

Entertainmentwise.com shared the tweets of Mark Howson who raved: "A great @lindsaylohan in #speedtheplow tonight. No cues or flubbed lines that I saw. Theatre should never be reviewed on opening night." Preach!

In addition, Vampire Soup posted: "She's here. She's acting. She knows her lines. Ha! YOU WERE WRONG #SpeedThePlow".

Dom O'Hanlon shared: "Well LILO did good. She remembered all her lines and was told she was just 'a tight p**sy wrapped around a tree'".

Let's hope the good reviews continue for the determined actress as she makes her West End debut!

David Mamet's Speed-the-Plow, directed by Lindsay Posner and will run for a limited time at London's Playhouse Theatre beginning September 24.

The play is comprised of three long scenes about Hollywood executives who dream of making it big in the film industry. They endure a constant struggle between what is more important: making money or upholding the quality and value of the artwork.

The play premiered on Broadway in 1988 featuring Madonna in the role of "Karen," the role Lohan plans to take on in November. The original production was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Play and Best Direction of a Play. In 2008, a revival of Speed-the-Plow opened on Broadway featuring Jeremy Piven, Raúl Esparza, and Elisabeth Moss.

Lohan made her motion picture debut in Disney's remake of The Parent Trap (1998), a critical and commercial hit. Her next motion picture, Disney's remake of Freaky Friday (2003), was also a success at the box office and with critics. With the release of Mean Girls (2004) and Disney's Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005), she seemed destined for great things. Lohan's debut studio album, Speak (2004), was certified platinum. Her second album, A Little More Personal (Raw) (2005), was certified gold.

Between 2010 and 2013, Lohan went into rehabilitation three times, and spent much of her time entangled in legal problems stemming from misdemeanors and probation violations. In 2012 and 2013, she did further television work, including starring as Elizabeth Taylor in the biographical TV film Liz & Dick (2012). In 2013, she starred in Paul Schrader's independent film The Canyons.
