NEW YORK — Julia Stiles will make her Broadway debut in a revival of David Mamet's (MAM'-eht) "Oleanna" (OH'-lee-anna), opening Oct. 11 at the Golden Theater in New York.

The 28-year-old Stiles will play a student and Bill Pullman will play a college professor in the production. Previews begin Sept. 29.

"Oleanna" (OH'-lee-anna) is now on view at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles through July 12.

Mamet will be a busy man in New York this fall. Two one-act plays — "School" and "Keep Your Pantheon" — open Sept. 30 at off-Broadway's Atlantic Theater Company. Also on tap for the new season is "Race," starring James Spader (SPAY'-dur) and Richard Thomas. It opens on Broadway in December.
