The Voysey Inheritance

New York Times: "OFFHAND it would be hard to think of a theatrical pairing less likely than David Mamet, the tough-talking hard guy, and Harley Granville Barker, an Edwardian playwright, director and matinee idol whose work, though daring in its time, is seldom put on anymore without a whiff of musty drawing room and mothballed frock coat. But there a number of affinities between them: a bent toward dark and sometimes uncomfortable themes; a liking for plain, colloquial language; and — as evidenced by Mr. Mamet’s adaptation of Granville Barker’s play “The Voysey Inheritance,” which opened Wednesday at the Atlantic Theater Company — a mutual fascination with greed, guilt and financial corruption."
