Glengarry Glen Ross

Glengarry Glen Ross is David Mamet's Tony/Pulitzer Award winning play that has had great success on both film and Broadway.

Fourth Incarnation on Broadway

This is the fourth incarnation of the play on Broadway, where the show originally debuted on Broadway in 1984, and won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, but not a Tony Award. The 1992 movie starred Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon and Alec Baldwin and received an Oscar nomination, but again no award.

In this production, Bob Odenkirk and Bill Burr will both make their Broadway debuts with the production. Kieran Culkin previously made his Broadway debut in widely acclaimed 2014's This Is Our Youth.

All Female Cast Version of The Show Failed To Materialize in 2018

An all-female cast production of Glengarry Glen Ross was announced for Broadway in 2018 and was set to be the fourth incarnation of the show. The production was slated to be directed by Amy Morton, and was intended to feature an all-female ensemble taking on the traditionally male roles.

The production did not materialize and thus never made it to Broadway and was shelved.
