Speed-the-Plow is an exhilaratingly sharp, comical, disturbing play about the power of money and sex in Hollywood, and how they corrupt two movie producers. Speed-the-Plow opened at Lincoln Center to sold-out seats, rave reviews and much fanfare in March 1988-staring Madonna, Joe Mantegna, and Ron Silver-and later moved to and had a long-standing run on Broadway.
