Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, Bill Burr to star in 'Glengarry Glen Ross' on Broadway
Tony Award winner Patrick Marber will direct the third revival of David Mamet's play, beginning performances at a date and theatre to be announced this spring.
Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr will lead a new production of David Mamet's play Glengarry Glen Ross on Broadway in spring 2025, with exact dates and a theatre to be announced.
Emmy, Golden Globe, SAG, and Critics Choice Award winner Culkin is best known for playing Roman Roy on the HBO drama Succession. His other screen appearances include Igby Goes Down and Saturday Night Live as host, and he has appeared in numerous Off-Broadway productions. His first, and most recent, Broadway appearance was in 2014's This Is Our Youth.
Odenkirk is a six-time Emmy Award nominee for playing Saul Goodman/Jimmy McGill on the AMC series Breaking Bad and the spinoff Better Call Saul, which he earned an additional six nominations for producing. He is also a writer, winning an Emmy for writing for Saturday Night Live.
Actor and comedian Burr was named to Rolling Stone's 2017 list of the "50 Best Stand-Up Comics of All Time." He received a Grammy nomination for his stand-up special Paper Tiger and an Emmy nomination for his dark comedy series Immoral Compass. His screen acting credits include Reservation Dogs and The Mandalorian.
Both Odenkirk and Burr will make their Broadway debuts in Glengarry Glen Ross, directed by Tony Award winner Patrick Marber (Leopoldstadt). Odenkirk will play Shelly Levene, Burr is Dave Moss, and Culkin is Richard Roma.
Additional cast and creative team members have yet to be announced.
Mamet's Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play takes place at a Chicago real estate agency, where four salespeople are in a cutthroat competition to sell the most worthless properties to unknowing customers. The winner gets a car — and the loser says goodbye to their job.
“In 1983, I saw the original production of Glengarry Glen Ross in London,” Marber said in a statement. “I was just 19. The play blew my young soul away. It was one of the reasons I wanted to work in theatre. Forty years later, I am so thrilled to be directing it on Broadway with these incredible actors. I will do my utmost to ensure that this great American play brings audiences the same great pleasures it brought to me.”
Glengarry Glen Ross premiered on Broadway in 1984 and was revived in 2005 and 2012.
