All Tickets, which is offering group discounts and a limited time COMP PROMO for the Broadway premiere of The Anarchist by David Mamet, is truly excited by new of the playwright’s latest offering. The announcement that Patti Lupone and Debra Winger will star in the Broadway premiere directed by Mamet was then greeted with another casting announcement for yet another drama by the US playwright. It turns out Al Pacino will star in this season’s revival of Mamet’s Glengarry Glen Ross.

nominated for three Oscars (Terms of Endearment, Shadowlands and An Officer and a Gentleman), acted with the playwright in the movie Black Window in which she starred with Theresa Russell. Winger, who played Detective Alex Barnes, and Mamet, who was cast as Herb the poker player, appeared in the poker scene together.

All Tickets notes that this is Winger’s Broadway debut. She will play the prison warden, Ann, to whom LuPone’s character pleads for parole. This play is being described as a tough, hard-hitting drama, a genre at which Mamet excels.

What to Expect?

The Anarchist is a two-character drama that’s driven by two female characters who are savvy and dedicated to ensuring they secure their intended objectives. This battle of wits looks to be the equivalent of a high stakes battle where life itself, or at the very least freedom and justice, are on the line.

"Group discounts to The Anarchist on Broadway"
Mamet, who will direct the Broadway premiere of The Anarchist, has a definitive writing style.

Mamet writes plays with dialogue that alternates between realistic-based segmented exchanges of sentences displaying authentic rhythms and degenerating sounds and long riffs and tirades that culminate in some sort of stunning revelation. To put it succinctly, Mamet’s dialogue uses the power of realistic speech patterns to define character and push each character’s objectives.

This is not easy material to perform due to the fact that it has such complex rhythms but when performed with the right technique the result is often stunning.
