For the last year, I’ve searched Broadway.com for Glengarry Glen Ross every evening and gotten the “ this show opening soon” notation. The last two days when I search it shows “ nothing matches your search”. I guess this means it’s “officially” dead for now, huh?
LuPone said she was going into rehearsals for it in August (which obviously didn't happen).
In their announcement of the American Buffalo revival this season, the New York Times included the following update on Glengarry:
"Last August, it was announced that Mr. Richards and Mr. Traxler were part of the producing team for an all female-revival of a different Mamet play, “Glengarry Glen Ross,” that was scheduled to begin performances in May of 2019. In a statement to The Times, the “Glengarry” producing team (which also includes Rebecca Gold) said, “We have deferred the production to the 2020-2021 season” in order to “secure the right theater.”

PianoMann, thanks for reminding me of that article. I do remember reading that. So there’s hope for next season!

I hope so! I think with the right cast it could be great.
I just did a search and did not find a peep about the all-female Glengarry that Amy Morton is supposed to direct. Is this still happening?
I found an article that referred to a Jason Reitman reading that was done back in 2013 with Mae Whitman, Carla Gugino, Robin Wright, Catherine O'Hara, Melanie Lynskey and Maria Bello. Can you imagine? I would be so there.
