Speed the Plow


Speed the Plow, The Old Vic, 2008

Cast: Jeff Goldblum, Laura Michelle Kelly, Kevin Spacey.
/
Writer: David Mamet
Director: Matthew Warchus

Let's not talk about Kevin Spacey, although he would have been the reason, along with Jeff Goldblum for actually seeing this. I wonder if Jeff has done anything in the West End since? If he has it hasn't been anything I've wanted to see. I'd be disappointed if this was the only time I saw him on stage although I suspect it he was good in it. David Mamet, however, is on my list of people whose work I just don't want to see again. Too male, too macho.
