One of the most celebrated plays of David Mamet's oeuvre, Speed-the-Plow was first produced in 1988 featuring Madonna, Joe Mantegna, and Ron Silver. It is a deeply satirical and witty look at the world of two Hollywood executives, Charlie Fox and Bobby Gould, both of whom have scrambled their way up to the top from the mailroom. As they lock horns over what initially seems like an obvious hit, jealousy and betrayal take over. Industry produces wealth, God speed the plow. - Back cover.
