David Mamet's trailblazing modern classic GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS, directed by Sam Yates, runs at the Playhouse Theatre in London's West End until 3 February, 2018 - read our review. The production stars Christian Slater, Robert Glenister, Kris Marshall, Stanley Townsend and Don Warrington.

David Mamet's Pulitzer-winning play, which premiered at the National in 1983, in back in London in a star-studded, pugilistic revival from Sam Yates. Though kept firmly in period, it's not hard to find skin-crawling contemporary parallels in Mamet's exposure of a toxic capitalist culture ruled by the art of the deal.

Christian Slater (Mr Robot, True Romance, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest), Robert Glenister (Hustle, Spooks), Kris Marshall (Death in Paradise, Love Actually, My Family), Stanley Townsend (Girl from the North Country, The Nether) and Don Warrington (Death in Paradise, Rising Damp), are the 'deal chasing' cut-throat sales team in David Mamet's masterpiece, Glengarry Glen Ross, alongside Daniel Ryan as Lingk (Linda Green, Posh) and Oliver Ryan as Baylen (Dr Faustus, As You Like It). This trailblazing modern classic, directed by Sam Yates, runs at the Playhouse Theatre now through 3 February 2018, and BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
