Who will come out on top? Find out in David Mamet’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama Glengarry Glen Ross, directed by Patrick Marber and starring Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr.
Glengarry Glen Ross is set in a cutthroat Chicago real estate office where four salespeople compete to sell mostly worthless properties to unwitting customers. Whoever sells the most wins a car; whoever sells the least is out of a job – a ruthless environment where each character will do anything to come out on top.
Renowned for its sharp, rhythmic dialogue and unflinching portrayal of human vulnerability, Mamet's work has become a cornerstone of modern American theater. The 1992 film adaptation, featuring an all-star cast, further cemented its legacy and introduced iconic lines like "Always Be Closing," which have since entered the cultural lexicon. Glengarry Glen Ross continues to resonate as a powerful examination of ambition, power dynamics, and the dehumanizing effects of a profit-driven society, making it a timeless reflection of both personal and systemic struggles.
This marks the third Broadway revival of the iconic play, which premiered on Broadway at the Golden Theatre in 1984. Previous cats have included such stage and screen superstars as Al Pacino, Alan Alda, Liev Schreiber, Jeffrey Tambor, Bobby Cannavale, and David Harbour. The film adaptation starred Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Alec Baldwin, Alan Arkin, Ed Harris, Kevin Spacey, and Jonathan Pryce.

6 / 10
After intermission, the play moves from the Chinese restaurant to the salesmen’s shabby office: plywood in part of the window, rust from a pipe bleeding down an upper wall. (Scott Pask’s sets for both acts are unimprovable, as are his costumes; the pale green shirt under Burr’s brown suit is a miniature triumph.) Culkin’s performance improves in this brighter environment, with greater mobility and action to play, but he’s still all wrong for Roma. When he loses control, there’s no menace to his anger; it’s just a peevish tantrum. To the extent that Marber’s job as a director here is, like John’s, to “marshal the leads,” it is only partly accomplished.
BROADWAY REVIEW: ‘Glengarry Glen Ross’ still masterful drama despite some casting choices
8 / 10
Culkin, though, has a staccato delivery, a halting rhythm and an innate sense of vulnerability, all qualities that have made him a much-cherished star. But they don’t easily make a Ricky Roma, and his work in the role, although far from sloppy or embarrassing, throws off the rhythms of the play. He’s been miscast.
