The Anarchist (Lyceum Theatre)

 WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Passion. Deception. Religion. Revolution. These thrilling topics and more are brought to light in the world premiere of this provocative two-hander by David Mamet. Two-time Tony Award winner Patti LuPone, will go head-to-head with three-time Oscar nominee Debra Winger, as two powerful women forced to engage in a cage match of wits. Mamet, who brought a fierce sense of pace and entertainment to the direction of his own Race, will be at the helm of this theatrical event.

From David Mamet comes a play about two women battling over freedom, power, money, religion — and their lack. Starring Tony Award winner Patti LuPone and Academy Award nominee Debra Winger in her Broadway debut.
 
Synopsis:
A female prisoner, who was once part of a Weather Underground-like radical group, pleads her case for parole with the warden.
