    Glengarry Glen Ross @ An Taibhdearc from May 15-20th @8:30pm. Tickets 16/13euro.Double tickets with The Green Mile 22.50euro.Booking on 091-563600.

    Galway based Shootin' Star Productions presents David Mamet's pulitizer prize winning script.Glengarry Glen Ross.The play deals with the pressure filled lives of four real-estate agents and what they have to do to ensure that they get the sale and avoid life without a job.The intensity of the pressure is personified by Blake (Justin Conboy), an unsympathetic boss who berates the work force due to their plummeting sales numbers.Blake reveals the three words by which the agents will live and die: ALWAYS BE CLOSING!!!

    Shelley Levene(Gerry Howard) is the longest serving salesman in the office but that counts for nothing when his name remains at the wrong end of the sales contest board. Shelley is desperate and attempts to persuade the office manager (Kieran Staunton) to help him achieve his past glory. Williamson remains indifferent to Levene's pleas until the possibility of a financial gain in entered into the equation.

    Another desperate man down on his luck, George Aaranow(Michael Canavan), garners some empathy from his more bullish and pro-active colleague Dave Moss (Sean Maguire) after an unsuccessful sales attempt. It is soon revealed though that Moss is playing a game and has involved Aaranow without his knowledge. The game involves the possibility of a dangerous,desperate act but who is desperate to go through with it.

    The one salesman who seems to be profiting from his position is Richard Roma(Albert Conneely). On top of the contest board by a long way and enjoying his sales pitch he gives to an unsuspecting gut he meets in a bar, James lingk (Ciaran O' Flatherty), Roma is a smooth, confident man and agent but, as we find out in Act 2, even he is fallible.

    This act opens with a police presence (Mark Hennigan) and the revelation that a crime has been committed,a desperate act. Each man is a suspect and each man has a motive, but as a curious man once said, WHO DUNNIT!!????

    Glengarry Glen Ross is directed by Cathal Cleary and Produced by Stephen Kenny.
