Theatre to be announced, Patrick Marber directing with Kieran Culkin as Ricky Roma, Bob Odenkirk as Shelly Levene and Bill Burr as Dave Moss.
I’ve seen productions of this in the last ten years or so with Pacino and Christian Slater so I think I’m done with this for the being but might be worth investigating for Culkin and Odenkirk (who I’m thinking is maybe a bit too young to play Levene without being made over)

Patrick Marber seems to be more directing these days which is interesting, don't he's done any playwriting for a while.

Watching the final episodes of Better Call Saul now, and I’m thinking Bob Odenkirk is looking very much like he fit the role of Shelley Levene: thankfully they haven’t got him playing Ricky Roma (I’ve never watched Succession but am not sure if Kieran Culkin is a good fit for that though)
