  "David Mamet has raised outrage to an art form. . . . Oleanna is...a scorcher.

Synopsis
In a terrifyingly short time, a male college instructor and his female student descend from a discussion of her grades into a modern reprise of the Inquisition. Innocuous remarks suddenly turn damning. Socratic dialogue gives way to heated assault. And the relationship between a somewhat fatuous teacher and his seemingly hapless pupil turns into a fiendishly accurate X ray of the mechanisms of power, censorship, and abuse.

Fast shipping and good price. Item as described. One small complaint: the CD was mailed in a thin plastic envelope without no bubble wrap, so it arrived with a cracked case that I had to replace. And when I sent a message to the seller with a photo of the damage, I didn't get a response.

  • Not For The Faint of Heart

    One of the most challenging and personal plays I've ever encountered. Not an easy read, but absolutely worth it. This play is as important today as it was in 1992.

  • Review of oleanna

    I bought it for my college English class and needed it to write an essay. It was inexpensive so I bought it online. I thought the play was boring and did not get to the point very fast, but that does not mean others would not like it.. I'm just not interested in feminist issues.
