Description

Three plays from the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning author of Glengarry Glen Ross and American Buffalo.

The Woods is a modern dramatic parable about, as Mamet put it, "why men and women have a hard time trying to get along with each other." The story features a young man and woman spending a night in his family's cabin where they experience passion, then disillusionment, but are in the end reconciled by mutual need.

In Lakeboat, an Ivy League college student takes a summer job as a cook aboard a Great Lakes cargo ship where the crewmembers--men of all ages--share their wild fantasies about sex, gambling, and violence. Mamet also wrote the screenplay to the 2000 film starring Peter Falk and Denis Leary.

In Edmond, a white-collar New York City man is set morally adrift after a visit to a fortune-teller. He soon leaves an unfulfilling marriage to find sex, adventure, companionship, and, ultimately, the meaning of his existence. Mamet also wrote the screenplay for the 2005 film starring William H. Macy.

"[A] beautifully conceived love story." --Chicago Daily News on The Woods

"[Mamet's] language has never been so precise, pure, and affecting." --Richard Eder of The New York Times on The Woods

"Richly overheard talk and loopy, funny construction." --Michael Feingold in The Village Voice on Lakeboat

"A riveting theatrical experience that illuminates the heart of darkness." --Jack Kroll of Newsweek on Edmond
