The Studio Theatre’s latest play Glengarry Glen Ross finishes its two week run with shows tonight, and Saturday starting at 8 p.m. Doors open at 7:30 p.m.
Revolving around four desperate real estate salesmen in 1980s era Chicago, Glengarry Glen Ross follows the triumphs and debacles of its characters as they drag each other through deception, betrayal, catastrophe…and a burglary.
There’s nothing these real estate sharks won’t do to close a deal.
