In this story of a penetrating battle of friendship versus business, loyalty is tested as three small-time crooks plot the midnight robbery of a buffalo nickel. David Mamet, one of theater's most acute writers, pens a biting critique of capitalism and inflated valuation in this menacing, humorous, and philosophical masterpiece. This volcanic production of David Mamet's American Buffalo comes to McCarter from Chicago's internationally acclaimed Steppenwolf Theatre Company. Steppenwolf premiered August: Osage County, which swept the Tony Awards when it transferred to Broadway in 2007. American Buffalo is directed by Tony Award-nominated August: Osage County actress Amy Morton and stars August: Osage County's Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tracy Letts. As a director, Morton has been hailed a "proven master of Mamet" by the Chicago Sun-Times. From Chicago's famed Steppenwolf Theatre Company. Location: Matthews Theatre
If Andrea Marcovicci is the Queen of New York Cabaret, then Steve Ross is the Crown Prince-and has been designated as such by no less than The New York Times. Ross is the epitome of the dapper cabaret singer and pianist, and he has built his career paying homage to the holy trinity of old-time super-sophisticates-Cole Porter, Noel Coward, and Fred Astaire-although his most recent solo show is devoted to the songs of Stephen Sondheim. In white tie and tails, Ross is the quintessence of old-style urbanity, and as he traverses the Great American Songbook, it's easy to imagine that you've been transported back to a late 1930s RKO musical, lounging around in an Art Deco rooftop nightclub, with a glittering Manhattan skyline visible through the windows.
