About this episode
David Mamet is a Pulitzer Prize-winning American playwright, screenwriter, and director. He first gained acclaim in the 1970s with plays like Sexual Perversity in Chicago, American Buffalo, and later the landmark Glengarry Glen Ross, which earned him both a Pulitzer and a Tony nomination. A founding member of the Atlantic Theater Company, Mamet’s prolific career spans theater, television, film, and essays. Mamet’s most recent play, Henry Johnson, premiered in 2023 and is currently being adapted for the screen.
Starting May 9th, Henry Johnson will be available for rental directly through the film’s website - and will also be screening in theaters across the country, including stops in Dallas (May 6), Santa Monica (May 9), and a weeklong run at Bryn Mawr Film Institute in Pennsylvania (May 9–13).
