SPEED THE PLOW Tickets and Dates

'Lindsay Lohan delivers the goods... a smouldering performance' Daily Telegraph 'Lindsay Lohan... a real presence. Richard Schiff and Nigel Lindsay in fine form' Independent 'Lindsay Lohan... genuine star presence' Times 'Lindsay Lohan... a revelation' Observer 'A highly accomplished stage debut' Sunday Express When a hugely bankable star agrees to appear in a sure-fire commercial hit, film producers Bobby Gould and Charlie Fox are convinced this is the break of a lifetime. That is until Karen (played by Lindsay Lohan), a temporary secretary, derails the dream. When she persuades Bobby to dump the blockbuster in favour of a story which can only be described as box-office poison, Charlie is forced to resort to desperate measures.. This brilliantly satirical portrayal of Hollywood is by David Mamet, the foremost playwright of his generation and the author of Glengarry Glen Ross, Oleanna and American Buffalo. A high-octane modern classic, Speed-The-Plow is filled with Mamet's trademark wit and mesmerising dialogue. The multi award-winning film actress Lindsay Lohan takes her first ever stage role as Karen, a part which was originally played in New York in 1988 by Madonna. Lindsay Lohan's films include Disney's The Parent Trap, Herbie: Fully Loaded and Freaky Friday, Mean Girls, Robert Altman's A Prairie Home Companion and Emilio Estevez's Bobby. She has appeared in the TV series Ugly Betty and starred as Elizabeth Taylor in the biographical TV film Liz & Dick.

A ú1.50 restoration levy (collected on behalf of the theatre) appears as part of the ticket cost. A ú2.75 transaction fee applies (this will be added to your order on the payment page). SPEED-THE-PLOW Previews 24 September - 1 October 2014 Booking Period Until 29 November 2014
