David Mamet directs his latest work, making its world premiere on Broadway.
After closely guarding the plot through most of the development process, Mamet revealed the main details in mid-September: "In my play a firm made up of three lawyers, two black and one white, is offered the chance to defend a white man charged with a crime against a black young woman. It is a play about lies. All drama is about lies. When the lie is exposed, the play is over."
