Bitter Wheat West End Original Cast

horror of life. Our hero, Barney Fein, is a bloated monster - a studio head, who like his predecessor, the minotaur, devours the young he has lured into his cave. His fall from power to shame is a mythic journey which has been compared to The Odyssey by people who claim to have read that book. A new play starring John Malkovich in his return to the stage after 33 years, written and directed by David Mamet in a good mood. Funnier than The Iceman Cometh - more chaos than Richard III, and without all the stupid, so called "poetry". Money, sex, power...you only need one of them to see Bitter Wheat at the Garrick.
