Arlington, VA–The Keegan Theatre announces a change in the lineup for its 2007-2008 10th Anniversary Season.  Glengarry Glen Ross, by David Mamet and directed by Jeremy Skidmore, originally scheduled to run at Church Street Theater from November 9- December 8, 2007, has been replaced with a limited return engagement of Mojo Mickybo, an audience favorite and critical success from the 2006-2007 season.

Due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts, Keegan learned in late August that Glengarry Glen Ross would need to be bumped to a later season – the company hopes to produce Glengarry in 2008-2009. “Obviously I was disappointed at first,” says Mark A. Rhea, Keegan’s Producing Artistic Director, “because this production of Glengarry would have been a great addition to our anniversary season. But in the theater you need to be flexible when problems arise – you do what you have to do. As I considered what to produce instead, Mojo Mickybo immediately came to mind and I became really excited about the idea. Audiences couldn’t get enough of this show last season, and now we have a chance to bring it to DC and to introduce this extraordinary piece of theatre to another audience base.” 

Mojo was a huge success for Keegan’s fledgling new island project, which produced its inaugural season in Arlington during 2006-2007.  “New island had an incredible first year,” says Rhea, “and Mojo was a big part of that.  It was one of the real artistic and critical successes of the project.  We were really proud the first time around, and I’ve no doubt we’ll be just as pleased with its return engagement.”
