You're all wrong. This is a great play.

I saw this play Off-Broadway in the 1970's and was mesmerized. This is Mamet in a very tender mood. It rings with authenticity and has one of the funniest onstage scenes ever written. It is a beautiful elegy to actors working at what they love.

Read Between The Lines People!

O.K., I know that many Mamet fans were disapointed with this one but I, for one, wasn't. This was actually the first Mamet play that I was introduced to (Before then I didn't even know that David Mamet existed) and I absolutly loved it, after reading it a few times. Yes, at first the dialouge (SP?) seems rather bland but, as my title says, you need to read between the lines! Use your imagination! There is something powerful about this piece because of all the underlaying tension. So read it! If you're patient, that is.
