Bernie Madoff's got nothing on the Voyseys! In David Mamet's award-winning adaptation of Harley Granville-Barker's gripping drama, Edward Voysey not only inherits his family business but the malpractice of cheating clients to keep the business solvent. The production at 2nd Story Theatre will end its run on April 11th.
"David Mamet writes about business like no one's business. And the combination of his incisive view of the world of finance and Harley Granville-Barker's intuitive knowledge of a family on the brink, makes a perfect pairing," says director Ed Shea. "It's a taut, tense and fascinating look at high finance that rivals the best of Lillian Hellman."
2nd Story Theatre is partially funded by the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts.
