About this audiobook
Three one-act plays from David Mamet, one of the master stage writers of our time:
The Shawl - A clairvoyant is in the process of swindling an unsuspecting woman on the basis of clever guess work and speculation. But it appears the clairvoyant has special powers that even he may not be aware of.
Reunion - After years of separation, Reunion follows the painful and deliberate efforts of a divorced and recovering alcoholic father, Bernie, and his daughter Carol to work their way back to early bonds of affection.
Bobby Gould in Hell - In this comic mediation on the nature of good and evil, Bobby Gould (from Mamet’s celebrated Speed the Plow) is interrogated by a pair of devils to decide his faith.
L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performances featuring Gus Buktenica, Dale Calandia, Marilou Henner, John Mahoney, Neil Pepe, Rebecca Pidgeon, Marc Vann and Dan LaMorte.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As usual, impeccable writing and dramatic concepts. The acting, also as to be expected from LATW, is superb. Bobby Gould will split sides and beg self-examination simultaneously. Can’t give this set of shorts high enough praise.
