Synopsis: Oscar nominee Michael Shannon stars in the New York premiere of Mistakes Were Made, a new comedy by Craig Wright, directed by Dexter Bullard.
Producer or politician? Is he defending his life or fighting to get one last project off the ground? Either way, Mistakes Were Made finds Felix completely oblivious to the world collapsing around him.
Broadway Reviews
NEW YORK TIMES REVIEW:
"A satisfyingly whole play is not easily constructed from half of a conversation, even when an actor as formidably talented as Michael Shannon is the man onstage with the phone surgically attached to his ear. "

NEW YORK MAGAZINE REVIEW:
""I'm just a producer," pleads Felix Artifex, producer (played by Michael Shannon, genius). "I'm just someone who tries to do what's right for other people." And with this passionately insincere declaration of totally insupportable good intentions, we're off. Craig Wright's Mistakes Were Made is 90 furious, fulminating, very funny minutes of American hucksterism in extremis, a symphonic one-man meltdown that pits Shannon's rapidly unraveling old-school deal-maker, his office phone affixed to his face like a respirator, against nine flickering lines of incoming chaos."

NY THEATRE REVIEW:

NEW YORK PRESS REVIEW:
"Casual fans of the theater will no doubt find amusing Mistakes Were Made, Craig Wright’s tortured and torturous new comedy about a theater producer. Producer Felix Artifex (who has a poster of his revival of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, starring Roseanne Barr and Erik Estrada, hanging on a wall) takes calls and tries to force a reluctant playwright to create an entirely new plot for his French Revolution drama to satisfy an interested movie star."

NEW YORK POST REVIEW:
"Michael Shannon fans often have to settle for seeing him in small doses: his brief, Oscar-nominated turn in "Revolutionary Road," his supporting role in HBO's "Boardwalk Empire.""
