BOBBY GOULD GOES TO HELL
Alumnus Ben Tallen
appears in David Mamet's Bobby Gould in Hell, produced by Way to Go
Turbo Productions at the Lowry Lab. David Mamet had a special place in
his heart for film executive Bobby Gould from his Speed-the-Plow.
Undoubtedly that's why he sent him to hell to suffer for eternity.
Whether Gould deserves that fate and whether he will be able to weasel
his way out of it are the subjects of this follow-up to the
playwright's earlier condemnation of Hollywood types.
