Description: "How Good is David Mamet, Anyway? is the best of John Heilpern's theater writings. There's a glittering cast list: Vanessa Redgrave and Ralph Fiennes, Helen Mirren and George C. Wolfe, Fiona Shaw and Savion Glover, Karen Finley and David Mamet, and dozens of others.

There's also a major piece on the vital differences between the British and American theater scenes, profiles of such legends as Noel Coward, Gielgud and Richardson, and Alec Guinness, review-essays on the great, good, and awful plays of our time, as well as irreverent views of some of our most widely admired theater icons."--BOOK JACKET.
