11:30pm is apparently when they'll drop. I'll leave them for someone else to post. I hope to be asleep then..
3 stars from Adam Feldman in Time Out NY.
Mixed from Jesse Green
So, the most interesting question raised by the basketful of so-so reviews posted on this site is whether Isherwood plagiarized Holdren or v/v.
[In the event the error has been fixed by dawn, we are lead to believe that they filed verbatim reviews.]
According to Did They Like It?, 11 positive, 6 mixed, 3 negative.

Given the lack of responses I guess I'm not the only one with little interest in this show.
Mostly came to see if the Jesse Green haters would be out as usual to say he's mean, mean, mean...but no one cares.

DTLI Consensus: With strong performances from Bill Burr and Bob Odenkirk, this Glengarry is convincing enough but doesn’t quite close the deal.
11 positive, 6 mixed (including the NYT), 3 negative.

I read Jesse Green’s review as a pan. A few of the others listed as thumbs up seem mixed at best.

Just pulling out Holdren's review, which as usual, is eloquent and on target.
‘You’re Wasting Leads’: Glengarry Glen Ross Returns
In this production starring Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Burr, the heavy questions around David Mamet's repugnant men go underexamined.

"Is the vileness itself funny? Is that a good enough excuse? By spending time with these swaggering, slur-slinging men, what are we learning about ourselves that we haven’t already learned, aren’t already seeing enacted on the most brutal and demoralizing national scale, every single day? When recreation for some intersects so completely with real and present horrors for so many, when do our politics, our consciences, demand that we rethink how we allow ourselves to be entertained?"

David Cote raves about Bill Burr in particular (deservedly so):
"The real discovery is Burr, who luxuriates in Mamet’s staccato fragments and torrents of profanity with natural ease. His sneering Boston accent a fine substitute for the Chicago inflection, Burr is alive up there, bursting with indignation and contempt for the business, his coworkers, himself. Although scrupulous precision with every word and bit of punctuation is required to pull off Mamet, Burr has a stand-up comedian’s looseness that suits Moss’s venomous, unhinged rants. Burr elevates every scene he’s in with his edgy discontent."

If anyone is going to get nominated for this production it seems likely to be Odenkirk and or Burr
