| A Life in the Theatre by David Mamet | |||
"...the Theatre... it's all part of one's life." West End. Broadway. Brisbane… it's time to take to the stage. From the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of “Glengarry Glen Ross” comes a hilarious and heartwarming tale of two actors exploring the meaning of life. Legendary stage actor, Robert, (Francis McMahon, "Elvis" "Ticket to Paradise") takes aspiring stage actor, John (Jesse Richardson, "A Godless Country" "Elvis"), under his not-so-benevolent wing as they traverse a season of plays, bars, and gigantic egos… A must-see comedic experience which will have you laughing out loud whilst tugging at your heartstrings… "We are explorers of the soul."
Event detailsVenue: Ad Astra Theatre Company, 57 Misterton St, Fortitude Valley, Qld The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Glengarry Glen Ross and Speed-The-Plow, takes us into the lives of two actors: John, young and rising into the first flush of his success; the other Robert, older, anxious, and beginning to wane. In a series of short, spare, and increasingly raw exchanges, we see the estrangement of youth from age and the wider, inevitable and endless cycle of life, in and out of the theatre.
