A wealthy executive is charged with assault; two comfortably established lawyers (one black, one white) undertake his defense, with characteristic jaded detachment: an open-and-shut case, business as usual. But the case becomes far more complex when their ambitious young assistant forces the attorneys to confront the role of color in both the crime and also in their perceptions of that crime. RLTP presents the work of master playwright David Mamet for the first time in this gripping new drama, resplendent in Mamet’s trademark humor, rapid-fire repartee, and unique blend of profundity and profanity, as his characters grapple with the most combustible four-letter word of all – race.
