Theatre Royal Bath Productions is featuring Richard Schiff, Nigel Lindsay and Lindsay Lohan in David Mamet's Speed-the-Plow at London's Playhouse Theatre for a strictly limited run. A high-octane modern classic, Speed-the-Plow is a brilliantly satirical portrayal of Hollywood filled with Mamet's trademark wit and mesmerizing dialogue. Check out photos from opening night below!
When a hugely bankable star agrees to appear in a sure-fire commercial hit, film producers Bobby Gould and Charlie Fox are convinced this is the break of a lifetime. That is until Karen (played byLindsay Lohan), a temporary secretary, derails the dream. When she persuades Bobby to dump the blockbuster in favour of a story which can only be described as box-office poison, Charlie is forced to resort to desperate measures....
The stage debut adds to Lohan's long list of credits including starring roles alongside Meryl Streep in PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION and Jane Fonda in GEORGIA RULE and her work with notable directors Robert Altman and Paul Schrader. She is best known for her starring role in MEAN GIRLS with Tina Fey.
SPEED-THE-PLOW is presented by Danny Moar and Simon Friend for Theatre Royal Bath Productions. Recent West End credits for Theatre Royal Bath Productions includes RELATIVE VALUES (Harold Pinter Theatre), ANOTHER COUNTRY (Trafalgar Studios),RELATIVELY SPEAKING (Wyndham's Theatre) and FENCES (Duchess Theatre).
