Glen Rock Actor Featured in Leonia Production of Race by David Mamet

Glen Rock resident Mark Mason is featured in The Players Guild of Leonia production opening this weekend. 'I seem to tend to gravitate toward the edgy (Ira in Stephen Fechter's The Woodsman) and the drier comedic (Wayne Seabury in Tom Griffin's Amateurs) shows when I go out for roles. Never having done Mamet before, I figured I'd appreciate trading the witty discourse and technical challenges of, say, summer rep for a chance to rise to the challenge of this script's peppery phrasing and beat-nuanced exchanges. Though I'm daunted by the minimalism of the set design, I trust Claudia's judgement.
