The Mooted Theatre Co. present ‘A Life In The Theatre’ by David Mamet

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 16, 2008 -- A Life in the Theatre follows two actors through the highs and lows of a life-changing season, sharing the detritus of their lives and their dressing room together.

This is a play not just about actors but about friendship, jealousy, love and hate, the passion of youth and the wisdom of age. It is about knowing when to speak and when to listen, and when to teach and when to learn. It is a play in which fine words mask coarse behaviour and the noblest of motives are lost in the eagerness to please.

It is also the story of two people spending an awful lot of time together in a confined space.

Along the way they negotiate the trenches of World War 1, an ER operating theatre, an 80s law office and stranded lifeboat.

Mooted’s witty, energetic and stylish production provides a revealing glimpse behind the scenes of theatrical life from a writer who knows what's really going on...
