    During the early 1980s, Americans of all races, sexes, and social statuses subscribed to the notion that one could be successful through hard work and determination. In his dark comedy Glengarry Glen Ross, David Mamet exposes this to be, as stated previously, nothing more than a notion. In this two-act play, working class men, including young and cunning salesman, Ricky Roma, do business in a sales office under the supervision of meek office manager John Williamson. The salesmen are forced into a competition within the office where the top salesman receives a Cadillac, and the two lowest salesmen of the month lose their jobs. As could be expected, the men try desperately to sell their real estate using any means necessary to close a deal, often…
