Race Broadway Show Review
Thursday, December 31, 2009
A law firm takes on a racially charged case in this hard-edged new Broadway play written and directed by David Mamet. James Spader and David Alan Grier play law partners, with Kerry Washington as their young associate and Richard Thomas as the famous client charged with the rape of a black woman.
Broadway Review
Race is an engaging play with a very good cast, and Mamet has some interesting observations about the subject matter. But the drama ultimately does little more than serve as an overview of the current state of racial relations (as per the cynical Mamet), without really offering much of anything new on the topic.
