By: Steve Leary
Chicago Premiere of The Voysey Inheritance
Voysey was originally written in 1905 yet it still resonates in today's world thanks to America's great history and love of MONEY. David Mamet’s refreshing update of Harley Granville-Barker’s play proves that’s nothing has changed over the past 100 years. This insightful comedy intertwines the wit and passionate dialogue of George Bernard Shaw with the ethical conflicts of Arthur Miller.

“Well, the more able a man is the less the word “honesty” bothers him… and Father was an able man.”—The Voysey Inheritance
