First produced in Chicago at the Northlight Theatre from March 17 until April 24, 1999. Comprised of three one-act plays: Jews, Jolly, and D. In  Jolly, a brother and sister fiercely debate their traumatic childhood and parents' divorce. Mamet's real-life sister, Lynn, later confirmed in interviews with The New Yorker that the segment is a highly accurate reflection of their shared upbringing in the Euclid Avenue house.
