David Mamet's "November" at Lyric Stage

It's A Landslide!

Lyric Stage Votes For
Mamet's "November"

The season continues at Lyric Stage Company of Boston with a production of David Mamet's "November." Directed by Daniel Gidron, "November" runs October 17 - November 17

Set just days before a presidential election, the latest comedy from the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer of "Glengarry Glen Ross" and "Wag the Dog." proves once and for all that there is no lower place than the highest office in the land.

Upon learning that he lacks the funds to properly campaign or construct a legacy-ensuring library, the unpopular incumbent Commander-in-Chief is inspired to tap into unlikely income source: the turkey industry.

Thanksgiving traditions, Indian casinos on Nantucket and the prospect of officiating a live, televised lesbian wedding demand attention in Mamet's timely creation. The New Yorker commented that the play was “A hilarious demonstration of the fact that we live in an age of equality: all classes are criminal!”

"November" opened on Broadway this past January with a cast led by Nathan Lane.

The Lyric production features Richard Snee as President Charles Smith with Will McGarrahan, Neil A. Casey, Adrianne Krystansky and Dennis Trainor, Jr.

For tickets and information, stop by the Lyric box office at 140 Clarendon Street or call 617-585-5678.
