Echo Theatre presents A Play About David Mamet Writing a Play About Harvey Weinstein, written by Mathilde Dratwa, as part of its Echo Reads series. A Play About David Mamet... is a searingly funny, powerful, smart, violent, intelligent, and brave play about gender semantics and the artistically misogynistic world that is both our past and our present. This satire about playwriting turns the creation of theatre on its head and effortlessly treads the line between comedy and drama.
