London: The Donmar Warehouse production of The Cryptogram plays its final performance today. Starring in the David Mamet drama is Kim Cattrall as Donny, Douglas Henshall as Del, and Oliver Coopersmith, Adam J. Brown, and Joe Ashman will share the role of John.
The creative team includes design by Peter McKintosh and lighting design by Neil Austin. Josie Rourke directs
In the drama, John cannot sleep. He's afraid to go to sleep. He doesn't understand what is happening or why his father hasn't returned home. David Mamet's unsettling, elliptical play charts the breakdown of a family, pinpointing the moment when childhood suddenly vanishes.
