This Doug Hughes-helmed production of David Mamet's controversial work transferred to Broadway following an acclaimed run at the Mark Taper Forum last summer.

The story is an account of the struggle that erupts when a female university student charges her male professor with sexual harassment. Mamet takes on incendiary topics such as assumption of power, intellectual freedom and sexual politics.
